A specific shade of orange paint calls for 2 parts yellow and 3 parts red. Catie uses 3 cups of yellow paint and 4 cups of red paint. Is this a proportional relationship?

• Yes. They both go up by 1, so it is proportional

• Yes. 2:3 and 3:4 are equivalent ratios

• No. The numbers are different, so they are not proportional

• No. 2:3 and 3:4 are NOT equivalent ratios

A saltwater solution for an aquarium calls for 35 parts salt to 1000 parts water. Tareq used 7 tablespoons of salt and 200 tablespoons of water. Is this a proportional relationship?

• No

If you have two ratios, how do you know they are proportional?

• If both quantities in the ratio go up by the same number

• If they are equivalent ratios

• If both quantities have the same difference between them

How can you use a unit rate to determine if a relationship is proportional?

• If two ratios have the same unit rate, then they are proportional

• If two ratios have different unit rates, they are proportional

• Unit rates are the same thing as proportions

• You can't

• Yes; 4 feet in 1 second

• No

• Yes; 2 feet in 1 second

• Yes; 8 feet in 2 seconds

A tectonic plate in Earth's crust moves at a constant rate of 12 centimetres in 3 years. In a different part of the world, another tectonic plate moves at a constant rate of 30 centimetres in 10 years.

What are the two unit rates? AND is it a proportional relationship?

• Both unit rates are 4 cm per year; Proportional

• Both unit rates are 3 cm per year; Proportional

• The first is 6 cm per year, the second is 3 cm per year; Nor Proportional

• The first is 4cm per year, the second is 3 cm per year; Not Proportional
