The graph shows a linear relation between variable y and x. Consider two quantities p and q defined by the equations. `p=(y)/(x), q=(y-b)/(x)`

As x changes from zero to a, which of the following statements are correct according to the graph?

A

Quantity p increases and q decrease.

B

Quantity p decrease and q increases

C

Quantity p decreases and q remain constant

D

Quantity p increases and q remain constant.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
q is slope of given line, which is a constant for a straight line.
p is slope of the line joing origin and point on the kine, which decreases as x increases.
