What does the coordinate (0,0) represent in a graph?

Back

The coordinate (0,0) represents the origin, where both x and y values are zero.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

The origin is the point (0,0) in a coordinate plane where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.

Front

Which equation represents a proportional relationship?

Back

An equation of the form y = kx, where k is a constant, represents a proportional relationship.

Front

What does a graph of a proportional relationship look like?

Back

A graph of a proportional relationship is a straight line that passes through the origin.

Front

If a graph shows a straight line that does not pass through the origin, is it proportional?

Back

No, if a graph does not pass through the origin, it does not represent a proportional relationship.

Front

What is the constant of proportionality?

Back

The constant of proportionality is the constant factor (k) in the equation y = kx that relates the two quantities.

Front

How can you find the unit rate from a word problem?

Back

To find the unit rate, divide the quantity of one item by the quantity of another item, ensuring the second quantity is one.
