Exploring Proportional Graphs

What is the main topic discussed in the video?

• Types of graphs

• Proportional and nonproportional graphs

• Graphing techniques

• Mathematical equations

What is a proportion?

• A set of ratios with a constant unit rate

• A graph that is always curved

• A relationship that changes randomly

• A set of unrelated numbers

What must be true for a graph to be considered proportional?

• It must pass through any point on the graph

• It must be a curved line

• It must be a straight line and pass through the origin

• It must have varying unit rates

What does it mean if Y over X is the same every time?

• The graph is curved

• The graph is nonproportional

• The graph is proportional

• The graph has no relationship

Which of the following graphs represents a proportional relationship?

• A straight line passing through the origin

• A curved line passing through the origin

• A straight line not passing through the origin

• A curved line not passing through the origin

Why does a graph that is not a straight line not represent a proportional relationship?

• Because it is not a straight line

• Because it has varying unit rates

• Because it has no points

• Because it does not pass through the origin

What is the significance of the origin (0,0) in determining proportionality?

• It is the starting point of all graphs

• A proportional graph must pass through it

• It is irrelevant to proportionality

• It is where all lines intersect

If a graph is a straight line but does not pass through the origin, is it proportional?

• Yes, because it has a constant unit rate

• No, because it does not pass through the origin

• Yes, because it is a straight line

• No, because it is not curved

What should you check to determine if a graph is proportional?

• If it is a straight line and passes through the origin

• If it is a curved line

• If it has varying unit rates

• If it passes through any point on the graph

What are you supposed to do on the back of the video?

• State whether or not the graph is proportional

• Calculate the unit rate

• Draw a new graph

• Find the origin
