Question

PLEASE HELP

For this graph, determine whether x and y are proportional.
If x and y are proportional, fill in the blank with a number in simplest form.

Answer 1

Explanation:

the x and y are proportional because the number increases by the same number each time. so y =2 and x=5 then on the next one, if it's proportional, y will = 4 and x will = 10. another way you can be sure that it is proportional is that every time you add the first number you can divide it and get the first number. for example if you divide 4 by 2 you will get 2. if you divide 10 by 2 you get 10. so in a short answer yes it is proportional

Answer 2

Proportional

y is 0.4 times x

or

y is 2/5 times x

Both numbers are the same, I don't know which form the computer expects you to enter

Explanation:

x and y are proportional since there is a linear relationship between y and x.

Let's verify this

When x = 5, y = 2. So y/x = 2/5 = 0.4
So y = 0.4x

When x = 10, y = 4
So y/x = 4/10 = 2/5 = 0.4

Again y = 0.4x

So the answer is 0.4, same as 2/5
