This video tutorial explains proportional relationships, focusing on the concept of the constant of proportionality. It demonstrates how to determine if two variables are proportional by checking if their ratios are equivalent, using multiplication or division. The video includes practice problems to reinforce understanding, highlighting both proportional and non-proportional examples. Viewers are encouraged to use the provided worksheet for additional practice.

What is a proportional relationship?

• A relationship where the ratio of two variables is constant.

• A relationship where the sum of two variables is constant.

• A relationship where one variable is always added to another.

• A relationship where one variable is always subtracted from another.
