What is a Multiplicative Relationship?

Back

A Multiplicative Relationship occurs when each x-value is multiplied by the same factor to find the corresponding y-value.

Example of an Additive Relationship: If x = 1, 2, 3 and y = 3, 4, 5, what is the relationship?

Back

The relationship is additive because 2 is added to each x-value.

Example of a Multiplicative Relationship: If x = 1, 2, 3 and y = 2, 4, 6, what is the relationship?

Back

The relationship is multiplicative because each x-value is multiplied by 2.

What does it mean if a relationship is neither additive nor multiplicative?

Back

It means that there is no consistent pattern of addition or multiplication between the x-values and y-values.
