This video tutorial introduces the concept of graphs of proportional relationships, focusing on the equation y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality. It explains how to determine if two quantities are proportional by using graphs and tables, emphasizing that a proportional relationship graph passes through the origin. The tutorial also covers finding unit rates from graphs, using examples like the speed of a subway car and the area cleaned by a robotic vacuum. The video aims to help students understand and apply these concepts in various contexts.

What is the equation used to represent a proportional relationship between two quantities?
