What is a non-proportional relationship?

Back

A non-proportional relationship is when the ratio between two quantities is not constant, and the graph does not pass through the origin.

How can you determine if a table of values represents a proportional relationship?

Back

If the ratio of y to x is constant for all pairs of values in the table, then it represents a proportional relationship.
