The unit rate of the proportional relationship between y and x in the graph is 2

What is the unit rate of the proportional relationship

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

The graph

On the graph, we have the following readings

(x, y) = (3, 6)

Using the above as a guide, we have the following:

The unit rate between y and x in the graph is

k = y/x

Substitute the known values in the above equation, so, we have the following representation

k = 6/3

Evaluate

k = 2

Hence, the unit rate between y and x in the graph is 2
