Solution

Taking a suitable scale,

For x-axis, 1 unit = Rs 1000 and for y-axis, 1 unit = Rs 80

We can represent the deposit on the x-axis and the interest earned on that deposit on y-axis. A graph of the given data is obtained as follows:

From the graph, the following points can be observed:

  1. Yes, The graph passes through the origin.
  2. The interest earned in a year on a deposit of Rs 2500 is Rs 200.
