Graphical Representations of Proportion

The video tutorial covers the concept of proportions, starting with direct proportion where y is proportional to x, forming a linear graph. It explains how the constant of proportionality, k, affects the graph's steepness. The tutorial then moves to non-linear relationships, showing how increasing the power of x results in steeper curves. It also covers inverse proportion, where y equals k over x, and explains the graph's behavior, including asymptotes. Finally, it discusses inverse proportion with x squared, highlighting how squaring negative numbers affects the graph.
