I need help with 7th grade Math.I medal and fan the first correct answers.

OpenStudy (i_ask_alot):

Which set(s) of points show x in DIRECT PROPORTION to y? A) {E, C, B} only B) {G, C, A} only C) {F, E, D} and {E, C, B} only D) {F, G, H} and {G, C, A} only

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the only sense i can make out of this question is to draw a line between the points (if you can) and see if it goes through the origin \((0,0)\) if so, the answer is yes

@dan815 got any ideas? this is weird to me

OpenStudy (dan815):

direct proportion means y=kx so k is the slope of a line, which of these points given look like they form al ine

OpenStudy (dan815):

OpenStudy (i_ask_alot):

FED is a straight line

OpenStudy (i_ask_alot):

so C?

OpenStudy (dan815):

okay so look y=kx has to be the direct proportion right, so i am guessing it must pass thru the origon y=kx+c is not allow ur not allowed any other y intercept other than 0
