Proportional relation
The slope
The blue slope is negative and the green one is positive, if you realize it your slope has to be positive.
To calculate the slope (m)
y = m x +b
m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)
____________________
You can take two points from the graph for example
Points (x, y)
Point 1 (0, 0); x1= 0 ; y1= 0
point 2 (300, 450); x2= 300 ; y2= 450
m = (450 - 0)/ (300 - 0)
m = 45/ 30
m = 3/2

The equation that represents the graph
y= 3/2 x

Table
Grams of fish (x); the number of calories (y)
y= 3/2 x
x= 300 Grams of fish
y= 3/2 (300)
y= 450
450 calories
______________
x= 1
y= 3/2 (1)
y= 3/2 = 1.5
1.5 calories
_____________
x= 1000
y= 3/2 (1000)
y= 3000/2 = 1500
1500 calories
_______________________
y = 2001 calories
y= 3/2 x
2001 = 3/2 x
x= 2001 *2/3
x= 1334
1334 grams of fish
