Answer:
Explained below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertical axis of Graph A represents the year for which the population of Benton is recorded.
Also the axis represents every other year, i.e. 2002, 2004, 2006 and so on.
This implies that the data is recorded for every other year.
Consider the data provided:
Benton population in 1000s Year
10 2002
11 2004
12 2006
13 2008
14 2010
For every 2 years the population of Benton is increasing by 1000.
That is for every year the population of Benton is increasing by 500.
If we make the vertical axis using the years:
2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 and so on, the graph will remain same with more points to plot.
So, on altering the vertical axis the graph does not changes much.
