Is this a proportional equation?  Why?

• It is not proportional because it doesn't have a constant.

• It is not proportional because it doesn't have a constant rate of change.

• It is proportional because if x = 0, y = 0.

• It is proportional because it has a y intercept.

Does each equation represent a proportional relationship? Choose Yes or No.

y = 13x - 7 ​ (a)  

y = 13x ​ (b)  

• no

• yes

Answer explanation

The first equation y = 13x - 7 does not represent a proportional relationship because it has a y-intercept that is not zero. A proportional relationship must have a y-intercept of zero. The second equation y = 13x does represent a proportional relationship because it has a y-intercept of zero.
