Unacceptable:
the marking of the origin as above
produces a non-linear scale
which will always be penalised.
Solution:
use of the broken scale
convention resolves the problem
but watch out if a gradient
calculation is then required.

Unacceptable:
leaving an origin unmarked on
either axis will not be accepted;
the scale will still be treated as
non-linear since the origin is now
ambiguous.
Solution:
use of a false origin is acceptable
but candidates should be careful if
they are then asked to calculate the
gradient.
