How do you find the unit rate in a proportional relationship?

Back

The unit rate can be found by dividing the value of one quantity by the value of the other quantity when the second quantity is equal to 1.

What is the significance of the origin in proportional graphs?

Back

The origin (0,0) is significant in proportional graphs because it indicates that when one quantity is zero, the other quantity is also zero.
