Multiplicative Relationships

Front

What is a multiplicative relationship?

Back

A relationship where one quantity is multiplied by a constant to obtain another quantity.

Front

How do you write an equation for a multiplicative relationship?

Back

The equation is written as y = ax, where 'a' is a constant.

Front

In the equation y = ax, what does 'y' represent?

Back

'y' represents the dependent variable.

Front

In the equation y = ax, what does 'x' represent?

Back

'x' represents the independent variable.

Front

What is the constant in the equation y = ax?

Back

The constant 'a' determines the rate of change between 'x' and 'y'.

Front

Which table shows a multiplicative relationship?

Back

A table where the values of 'y' are proportional to the values of 'x'.

Front

What does it mean if 'y' is directly proportional to 'x'?

Back

It means that as 'x' increases, 'y' increases at a constant rate.

Front

How can you identify a multiplicative relationship from a table?

Back

Check if the ratio of 'y' to 'x' is constant for all pairs.

Front

What is the formula for finding 'y' in a multiplicative relationship?

Back

The formula is y = ax, where 'a' is the constant multiplier.

Front

If y = 3x, what is the value of 'y' when 'x' is 4?

Back

y = 3 * 4 = 12.
