Answer:

First table.

Explanation:

Among the options, the first table is showing a proportional relationship, because each y-value is half of the x-value. The ratio of this proportion is
(1)/(2), we can find that by calculating the slope:


m=(\Delta y)/(\Delta x)=(1-0.5)/(2-1)=(0.5)/(1)=(1)/(2)

Therefore, the right answer is the first table.
