Proportional and Nonproportional Relationships S2/A

Sebastian recorded the following data in a table. Does Sebastian's data represent a proportional or nonproportional relationship?

• Proportional, because the x-values increase by 1.

• Proportional, because the relationship is nonlinear due to the data having negative values.

• Nonproportional, because the values have a constant rate of change of –2 and the y-intercept is not 0.

• Nonproportional, because the relationship is nonlinear due to the data having negative values.
