Interpreting Graphs of Proportional Relationships

The video lesson focuses on interpreting graphs of proportional relationships. It begins with an introduction to the concept and explains how to interpret ordered pairs on a graph. The lesson includes practice exercises for interpreting graph points, emphasizing the importance of understanding the x and y coordinates. It also covers identifying proportional relationships in graphs, highlighting that such relationships are represented by lines passing through the origin. The lesson concludes with a call to action for viewers to subscribe for future content.

What is a proportional relationship in a graph?

• A relationship where the line never touches the origin

• A relationship where the line passes through or begins at the origin

• A relationship where the graph is a bar chart

• A relationship where the graph is a circle

Does the graph of the subway car speed represent a proportional relationship?

• Yes, because the line passes through the origin

• No, because the line is straight

• No, because the line does not pass through the origin

• Yes, because the line is curved

Why is the helicopter graph not a proportional relationship?

• Because the graph is a bar chart

• Because the graph starts at (0, 35) and not at the origin

• Because the graph is a circle

• Because the graph is a straight line

Does the turnpike travel graph represent a proportional relationship?

• No, because the line is straight

• Yes, because the line is curved

• No, because the line does not begin at (0, 0)

• Yes, because the line begins at (0, 0)
