How to draw a graph when there are two simultaneous equations with both x and y generating big numbers. How to hold the graph within the single page? Example question 3x =35y+56 and 3x=5-16y. The numbers generated for these equations contain wide range of numbers and cannot be easily plotted to scale within a small graph page. How to plot suhc numbers within a small graph page?

Hi,

We understood your query. Generally, graphs which include wide range of numbers will not be asked in your exam.

But in such cases, if you have data on X-axis as 1140, 1560, 3589,...... and so on, then you can take points as 1000, 1500, 2000 and approximately plot the coordinates.

ALternately, if you have no data from 0 to 1000 and then you have data such as 1140, 1210,... and so on, then you can draw a kink (jagged line) on X-axis.

It represents that there is no data from 0 to 1000 and you are starting from 1000, 1100, 1200 and so on.

Hope this clarifies your doubt.
