♡ To start off, the numbers listed are factors of two and answers of the pairs, 2x4=8 is an example and if you divide the numbers you will notice that you have to multiply the numbers with 2 to get the x value and if you keep dividing you’ll eventually end up with 2 for each one. So yes, the table does represent a proportional relationship. ♡

Answer:

From the table, find the ratio between each value of y and its corresponding value of x. y/x = 1/5 = 1/5 y/x = 8/40 = 1/5 y/x = 13/65 = 1/5 So, the ratio between the values of y and and their corresponding values of x is constant. Hence, the relationship represented by the table given above is proportional.
