Bharat,
Why not use the properties of Frame and then modify those options as
you see fit. For example,
Plot[10Exp[0.04x], {x, 1, 8}, PlotRange -> {{0, 9}, {8, 16}},
AxesOrigin -> {0, 8},
Frame -> True, Axes -> True,
FrameLabel -> {"\nTemp", "f(x)\n"}, FrameStyle ->
{{RGBColor[1,
1, 1]}, {RGBColor[1, 1, 1]}}, FrameTicks -> {Automatic,
Automatic, None, None}]
If you do not want to have the label on the y-axis rotated add the
option RotateLabel->False
Cheers,
Brian
