What is a proportional relationship?

Back

A proportional relationship is a relationship between two quantities where the ratio of one quantity to the other quantity is constant.

Front

How can you identify a proportional relationship from a table?

Back

A proportional relationship can be identified if the ratios of corresponding values are equal.

If a table shows the values (2, 4), (3, 6), (4, 8), does it show a proportional relationship?

Back

Yes, it shows a proportional relationship because the ratio of y to x is constant (2).

Front

If a table shows the values (1, 2), (2, 5), (3, 7), does it show a proportional relationship?

Back

No, it does not show a proportional relationship because the ratios are not constant.

Front

What is the formula to find the constant of proportionality?

Back

The constant of proportionality can be found using the formula k = y/x.

Front

If the constant of proportionality is 100, what is the value of y when x = 3?

Back

y = 100 * 3 = 300.
