Answer to Problem 1CR

Solution:

The graph of the line is shown in figure (1).

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The equation is 5xy=15.

Approach:

  1. Substitute the different values of x in given equation.
  2. Find the corresponding value of y
  3. Put the point on the graph.

Calculation:

Consider the given equation,

5xy=15(1)

Substitute 4 for x in equation (1)

5(4)y=15y=5

So, the obtained point is (4,5).

Substitute 6 for x in equation (1)

5(6)y=15y=15

So, the obtained point is (6,15).

Substitute 2 for x in equation (1)

5(2)y=15y=5

So, the obtained point is (2,5).

The line is shown in figure (1)
