I'm bound on linewidth property..I'm completing my assignment but this property is not going me forward.

Noam
I kindly ask to have the following answer marked as Accepted Answer:
x = 1:1:10;
L=5 % amount of lines
y = randi([1 10], L,10);
Lwidth=[1 2 3 4 5]
figure(1);hold all
for k=1:1:L
plot(x,y(k,:),'LineWidth',Lwidth(k))
end
grid on
or
figure(1);hold all
for k=1:1:L
h=plot(x,y(k,:))
h.LineWidth=Lwidth(k)
end
grid on

.
appreciating time and attention

Dear Start Strider, here no one has plagiarised your answer.
Your answer has a constant line width of 2.
The question is asking for a variable line width.
I supply an answer that has a variable line width: 5 lines with different LineWidth parameters.
do you see the difference?

There is no essential difference!
My Answer shows how to do what Noam wants to do. It should be easy for Noam to use my code and expand on it as necessary. ‘Multiline’ implies more than one line, and my code does exactly what was asked.

Use the hold function and plot them individually:
x = 1:10;
y1 = rand(1, 10);
y2 = 1+rand(1,10);
figure(1)
plot(x, y1)
hold on
plot(x, y2, 'LineWidth',2)
hold off
grid
