Practice questions

Q1A learner plots (4, 1) at the place for (1, 4). Which teacher correction directly addresses the error?

A Tell the learner that all plotted points should be joined by a line.
B Ask the learner to write a larger scale on both axes.
C Remind the learner to move first along the x-direction for 4 units, then along the y-direction for 1 unit.
D Ask the learner to convert the point into a pie-chart sector.
Explanation

The learner has reversed the order of the coordinates, so the correction should stress x first and y second. Joining points, changing scale, or moving to a pie chart does not fix the ordered-pair error.

Q2A teacher is drawing a bar graph of students' favourite fruits. Which choice correctly describes the scale of the vertical axis?

A The tallest bar should always touch the top line of the paper.
B One equal step on the axis must represent a fixed number of students.
C The numbers may be written at unequal gaps if all bars are labelled.
D The scale is the title written above the graph.
Explanation

A scale tells the fixed value represented by each equal unit or square on an axis. Unequal gaps, a missing scale, or a decorative choice like filling the page can make the graph misleading.

Q3Statements: I. A bar graph compares separate categories. II. A histogram usually has adjacent bars for intervals. Choose the correct option.

A Only I is correct
B Only II is correct
C Both I and II are correct
D Neither I nor II is correct
Explanation

Bar graphs compare discrete separate categories with gaps between bars, while histograms group continuous intervals with adjacent bars, so both statements hold.

Q4Match List I with List II: Bar graph, Pie chart, Ordered pair, Origin.

A Categories; whole-parts; point location; (0, 0)
B Whole-parts; categories; (0, 0); point location
C Trend; categories; angle; area
D Intervals; trend; sector; negative number
Explanation

Bar graphs show categories, pie charts show parts of a whole, an ordered pair fixes a point's location, and the origin is the point (0, 0); option A keeps each pairing correct.

Q5Match the graph type with the best classroom data: line graph, bar graph, histogram, circular graph.

A Favourite games; temperature through a day; whole class share; marks intervals
B Temperature through a day; favourite games; marks intervals; share of whole class
C Marks intervals; whole class share; favourite games; temperature
D Whole class share; marks intervals; temperature; favourite games
Explanation

Line graphs suit change over time (daily temperature), bar graphs suit discrete categories (favourite games), histograms suit grouped intervals (marks), and circular graphs suit parts of one whole (class share).

7A class survey gives the numbers of students using bus, bicycle, walking and guardian drop-off. While making a bar graph, which item is essential before comparing bar heights?

AThe bars must be joined to show a continuous pattern
BThe vertical axis may use unequal steps if the bars look neat
CThe vertical axis must have an equal scale with units
DThe categories must be converted into marks intervals

12Which point lies on the y-axis?

A(3, 2)
B(2, 0)
C(0, 4)
D(4, 0)

13On a coordinate plane, what is the origin?

AThe point where only the horizontal axis begins
BThe point (0, 0) where the two axes meet
CAny point whose first coordinate is zero
DAny point whose second coordinate is zero

14In a bar graph, the scale is 1 square = 4 books. If the bar for the class library has a height of 7 squares, how many books does it show?

A7 books
B11 books
C24 books
D28 books

15A teacher wants to introduce coordinate plotting to Class 6 students for the first time. Which sequence is most suitable?

AStart with distance formula, then ask students to memorize graph-paper examples.
BBegin directly with negative quadrants, then explain what the origin means at the end.
CGive only printed coordinate grids and ask students to copy five plotted points.
DUse floor-grid movement from the origin first, then shift the same movements to graph paper.
