How do you determine if a table represents a direct proportion?

• You check a few of the ratios of y/x or output/input to see if they are equal.

• You see if the ratios of input/output or x/y are equal

• You see if they all look to be the same and take a guess.

• You check ALL of the ratios of y/x or output/input and make sure that they are equivalent to the same number.
