How can you determine the constant of proportionality from a table?

• By adding the X and Y values.

• By dividing the Y value by the X value.

If a graph is linear but does not go through the origin, is it proportional?

• No, unless it is a horizontal line.

• Yes, always.

• No, it must also go through the origin.

• Yes, if it has a constant slope.

What does it mean if a graph of a relationship is not linear?

• It is proportional if the slope is constant.

• It can still be proportional if it passes through the origin.

• It is only proportional if it is a vertical line.

• It is not proportional.
