the table shows a proportional relationship between the weight on a spring scale and the distance the spring has stretched. describe the scale you can use on X and Y axes of a coordinate grid that would show all of the distances and weights in the table

Here the values are proportional to each other.

Proportionality ratio is,


(20)/(28)=(5)/(7)

Then scale on X-axis representing weight in Newton is 1 unit is equal to 7 Newton

And on the the Y axis representing distance in cm is 1 unit is equal to 5 cm.
