Question

Which statement best explains if the graph correctly represents the proportional relationship y = 3.5x?

(4 points)


No, the points shown on the line would not be part of y = 3.5x
No, proportions cannot be represented on a graph
Yes, the points shown on the line would be part of y = 3.5x

Answer 2

do you know how to find the slope?

Answer 3

a lil

Answer 4

so what is the slope?

Answer 5

2/3.5 ??

Answer 6

solve the top then the bottom so 7-3.5=3.5 and 2-1=1 so the slope is 3.5/1 (which could also be written as just 3.5)

Answer 7

oh i get it so its just basic math written differently

Answer 8

yes. so when the slope is 3.5 that means that for every x unit you go up 3.5 (look at the graph and you can see what I mean) but back to the problem... 3.5x represents a slope and the line in the graph has that slope so the points shown on the line would be part of y=3.5x. Does that make sense??

Answer 9

yes so my answer is c

Answer 10

yep

Answer 11

thank u so much

Answer 12

you're welcome!
