Which phrase best describes the graph of a proportional relationship
in proportional, it is y/x=k or y=kx
basically it is like y=mx+b, it isĀ a line
the complete question is
Which phrase best describes the graph of a proportional relationship?
A.a straight line passing through the origin
B.a straight line
C.a curve
D.not a straight line
we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional relationship (direct variation) if it can be expressed in the form
\(\frac{y}{x}=k\\ or\\ y=kx\)
the equation \(y=kx\) is a straight line passing through the origin with slope equal to k
therefore
the answer is the option
A.a straight line passing through the origin
