Question

Which graph below shows the rule: output = 5 times input?

Answer 1

Given:

Output = 5 times input

To find:

The graph for the given statement.

Solution:

We know that, y-axis represents the output and x-axis represents the input.

Let y be the output and x be the input. Then the given statement can be written as

$y=5x$

Here, the slope of the line is 5 because the value of $m$ is 5 on comparing the equation with $y=mx+b$.

It means the line is steeper because the vertical change is greater than the horizontal change.

Therefore, the correct option is A.
