Non-Proportional Relationships

What is a non-proportional relationship?

Back

A non-proportional relationship is a relationship between two variables where the ratio of the two variables is not constant. This means that as one variable changes, the other variable does not change at a constant rate.

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope of a line represents the rate of change of the dependent variable (y) with respect to the independent variable (x). It indicates how steep the line is.

What does it mean if a line has a negative slope?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as the independent variable (x) increases, the dependent variable (y) decreases.

Front

What does it mean if a line has a positive slope?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as the independent variable (x) increases, the dependent variable (y) also increases.
