The document outlines a procedure for drawing linear graphs on a coordinate plane based on student attendance data. It includes prerequisites such as understanding coordinate axes and quadrants, and provides a step-by-step method for collecting data, tabulating absences, and plotting the results. The activity demonstrates that the graph will be linear when two quantities are in direct variation.

Pr objective
Todraw linear graphs on a coordinate plane
A Prerequisite knowledge
1. Coordinate axes, 0
Two mutually perpendicular lines intersecting at a point known as origin O, the horizontal
known as x-axis and the vertical line isknown as y-axis. at

2. Quadrants:
The twe i A
0 axes divide the cartesian plane into four parts, each partis called ara. Thee
quadrants are

dict
& Materials required
White paper, a scale, graph papers, a pencil and an eraser.
py Procedure
1, From the attendence register, find the number of
f students who were absent on different da
of the week. =o
2, Tabulate the number of students of your class who were absent agtnst respective dss.
letus consider the following data :
Days of the week | Monday
Number of
students absent
3. Assume that for each day the student who is absent, a i of Rs. 10 ip ty the school. Make
table showing the amount of fine collected by the class atthe end of the

Observation
Weobserve that the graph is straight line ., itis linear graph passing through the origin,
Result
‘This activity helps us to understand linear graphs. In fact whenever two quantities are in direct variationthe
‘graph will always be linear.
Learning outcome
