What is a proportional graph?

Back

A proportional graph is a graph that shows a constant ratio between two variables, meaning that as one variable increases, the other variable increases at a consistent rate.

What does the ordered pair (0,0) represent on a graph?

Back

The ordered pair (0,0) represents the origin on a graph, where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.

What does it mean if a graph is non-proportional?

Back

A non-proportional graph does not show a constant ratio between the two variables, meaning the relationship between them is not consistent.

What is the significance of the slope in a proportional graph?

Back

In a proportional graph, the slope represents the constant of proportionality, indicating how much y changes for a unit change in x.

How can you tell if a graph represents a proportional relationship?

Back

A graph represents a proportional relationship if it passes through the origin (0,0) and is a straight line.

What is the difference between proportional and non-proportional relationships?

Back

Proportional relationships have a constant ratio and pass through the origin, while non-proportional relationships do not have a constant ratio and may not pass through the origin.

What does the term 'dependent variable' mean?

Back
