One unit on the x axis equals: 4 units

One unit on the y axis equals: 4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the scales for x and y axes, we will consider the highest and lowest values for x and y respectivey.

(3,20), (-14, 11), (0, 13), (19, 2), (1, -17)

For x axes:

The lowest number is -14

The highest number is 19

We can say the units on the x axes will be from -20 to 20

For y axes:

The lowest number is -17

The highest number is 20

We can say the units on the y axes will be from -20 to 20

Since there are 5 boxes or lines before the arrow, each line can represent 20/5

Each line will represent 4 unit

If 1 unit represents 1 line:

One unit on the x axis equals: 4 units

One unit on the y axis equals: 4 units
