Exploring Proportional Graphs in Math 7

The video tutorial covers the basics of proportional graphs, using examples like Pac-Man to explain graphing proportional relationships. It discusses how to interpret graphs and tables, identify proportional graphs, and calculate the constant of proportionality. The tutorial also distinguishes between proportional and non-proportional graphs, emphasizing the importance of a straight line through the origin.

What is the x-axis used for in a graph?

• Plotting vertical points

• Plotting horizontal points

• Showing the slope

• Indicating the origin
