Front

What makes a graph proportional?

Back

A proportional graph is a straight line that goes through the origin.

Front

What does k represent in the equation y = kx?

Back

k represents the constant of proportionality.

Front

Is the graph proportional?

Back

No, it is non-proportional.

Front

Is the relationship proportional, if so, what is the equation for the table given?

Back

Front

What is the definition of constant of proportionality?

Back

The constant of proportionality is the constant ratio between two proportional quantities.

Front

How can you identify a proportional relationship from a table?

Back

A proportional relationship will have a constant ratio between the x and y values.

Front

What is the slope of a proportional graph?

Back

The slope of a proportional graph is equal to the constant of proportionality (k).

Front

What does it mean if a graph does not pass through the origin?

Back

If a graph does not pass through the origin, it is not proportional.

Front

How do you find the constant of proportionality from a graph?

Back

You can find it by determining the slope of the line.
