Explanation:

A is not proportional

Use the graph to record the value of y axis when x is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

And record the values of x when y is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 till the end

Using the graph Value of y

(1, 0.9) (2,1.5) (3,2.2) (4,2.5) (5, 3) (6,4) (7, 5) (10,6)

Using the graph, find the value of x when y is 1 - 10)

1.2, 2.5, 5,.....

The slope of the graph also shows that it is not proportional

B is proportional

X is 0 and y is 0

When x is 5, y is 10

Ratio x: y = 5:10 = 1:2

When x is 10, y is 20

Ratio x:y is 10: 20 = 1:2 same as above

C is not proportional

When Moyra is 32, daughter is 8

When her daughter is 22, Moyra will also be 4years older, which is 36

32: 8 = 4:1

36: 12 =3:1
