Answer: Option A. -> True
:
A
x-coordinate is the distance of point from y-axis and y-coordinate is the distance of point from x-axis. Since, y-coordinate is 0, the distance of point from x-axis will be zero which means the point will lie on x-axis.

Answer: Option B. -> 1
:
B
The height of the bars quantify the sales for that particular fruit on Monday and Tuesday. We need to look for the fruits for which the bars corresponding to Monday have more height than those for Tuesday.
We canseethat banana is the only fruit for which sales on Monday is more than that on Tuesday.

Answer: Option D. -> Papaya
:
D
The graph depicts the sales of each fruit on Monday and Tuesday. The height of the bars quantify the sales for that particular fruit on these days. We need to look for the fruitwhich has the same bar height corresponding to Monday and Tuesday.
We canseethat papaya has sales of 22.5 kg on both Monday and Tuesday.

Answer: Option B. -> Line graph
:
B
A line graph is most suitable if we take regular readings at small time intervals. Using the given intermediate points, readings can be estimated at any given time in the period.

We need two pieces of data to represent any point on a two-dimensional plane. The position of any point in two-dimensional space is given by an ordered pair of real numbers, each number giving the distance of that point from the origin measured along the given axis, which is equal to the distance of that point from the other axis.
:
Representation of data in form of sectors of a circle is called pie chart.
Answer: Option D. -> Double bar graph
:
D
Adouble bar graphis a graphical display of information using twobarsbeside each other at various heights.
Thebarscan be arranged vertically or horizontally.
We can use adouble bar graphto compare two data groups. Adouble bar graphhas two axes.
So, hereadouble bar graph can be used, one set of graphs for each of the 2 days.

Answer: Option A. -> the same as that of the medium pizza
:
A
We can see this example as a type ofpie chart. The medium pizza isa small pie chart, which is divided into 8 equal parts. So, the percentage of pizza eaten by you is 18x100. Similarly, in thelarge pizza asimilar pie chart is depicted. This is again divided into 8 equal parts, the percentage of large pizza eaten by you is 18x100. So, the percentage of large pizza eaten by you will be same as percentage of medium pizza eaten by you.

Answer: Option C. -> 10
:
C
In the figure, the x-axis represents the time and y-axis represents the number of people. In a line graph, the value of datum at any point can be found using the line. The time 2:30 pm is exactly halfway between 2 and 3 pm. The number of people is on the y-axis corresponding to the point between that at 2 and 3. Halfway between 5 and 15 on a number line is 10. Hence the number of people at 2:30 pm are 10.

Question 10. Students in Mrs. Smeera's class were surveyed about snacks and asked to choose one snack they liked most from a list. The bar graph below summarizes the data collected from this survey.
Assuming that one student likes only one of the given snacks, ___ percentage of students liked mixture.
Assuming that one student likes only one of the given snacks, ___ percentage of students liked mixture.
:
The total number of students are 22. The number of students who like the mixture is 2. The percentage of students who like mixture is 222×100 = 9.1%.
