This video tutorial introduces 7th-grade students to graphs of proportional relationships, focusing on identifying proportional graphs, evaluating tables for proportionality, and applying these concepts to real-world scenarios like a lemonade recipe and turtle movement. Key concepts include understanding the origin in coordinate planes, recognizing straight-line graphs through the origin, and determining proportionality in tables and equations.

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

• The point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect

• The highest point on a graph

• The point where the graph ends

• The starting point of a graph

What is the significance of the point (0,0) in a proportional graph?

• It is the midpoint of the graph

• It is the endpoint of the graph

• It is the highest point on the graph

• It is the starting point of a proportional relationship

Which of the following graphs represents a proportional relationship?

• A horizontal line

• A straight line passing above the origin

• A curved line passing through the origin

• A straight line passing through the origin

What does a straight line through the origin on a graph indicate?

• A non-linear relationship

• A proportional relationship

• A constant value

• An inverse relationship

In the lemonade recipe, what does the variable 'x' represent?

• The number of cups of lemon juice

• The number of cups of water

• The ratio of lemon juice to water

• The total amount of lemonade

How can you tell if a table represents a proportional relationship?

• By checking if the table has more than two columns

• By ensuring the table has equal rows and columns

• By ensuring all values are positive

• By checking if the ratios are consistent

What is the constant of proportionality in a proportional relationship?

• The sum of all values

• The consistent ratio between two variables

• The difference between the highest and lowest values

• The product of all values

Why is the table of lighthouse visibility not proportional?

• The distances are too large

• The heights are not in meters

• The table has too many entries

• The ratios of height to distance are not consistent

If a turtle walks away from a rock at a constant rate, which equation represents this proportional relationship?

• y = 3x

• y = 3 - x

• y = x + 3

• y = x - 3

In the context of the turtle's movement, what does a constant rate imply?

• The turtle moves at a steady speed

• The turtle moves at varying speeds

• The turtle moves in a circular path

• The turtle stops frequently
