Exploring Proportional and Non-Proportional Relationships

What is a key feature of a graph that indicates a proportional relationship?

• It intersects the y-axis above the origin.

• It passes through the origin (0,0).

• It has a curved line.

• It only appears in the first quadrant.

What is the significance of the origin point (0,0) in determining proportionality in graphs?

• It suggests the graph is non-linear.

• It indicates a high rate of change.

• It signifies a proportional relationship.

• It shows the graph is linear.

Which equation represents a proportional relationship?

• y = x/2 + 1

• y = 2x - 4

• y = 5x

• y = 5x + 3

Why is the equation y = 5x considered proportional?

• Because it includes a subtraction.

• Because it divides x by a constant.

• Because it only involves multiplication.

• Because it has a constant added to it.

How does the presence of a constant in an equation affect its proportionality?

• It results in a nonproportional relationship.

• It has no effect on proportionality.

• It makes the relationship proportional.

• It indicates a variable rate of change.
