Yes

100

TRUE or FALSE: Proportional relationships MUST start at (0,0)

true

100

TRUE or FALSE: 

Linear relationships can start anywhere on the y-axis.

True, a linear relationship can have a y-intercept

100

TRUE or FALSE: Slopes can be crooked 

False

100

TRUE or FALSE: proportional equations are the same as linear equations

False


200

is  y=mx+b  proportional or linear?

Linear, to be proportional it wouldn't have a y-intercept!

200

what is the equation for proportional relationships 

y=mx 

200

what is the equation for linear equations 

y=mx+b

200

what is the formula for slope from a graph?

rise/run

200

what is your constant rate of change if you have the points (3,2) and (6,4)

2

300

what is the difference between proportional and linear relationship

a linear relationship has a y-intercept

300

What is the only number in a proportional relationship?

The slope or rate of change

300

in the equation y=mx+b what is b and what is mx 

b is your y intercept and m is your slope

300

how can I tell if a slope is negative or positive

(detailed explanation)

if the line is going upwards left to right it is positive.

if the is going downwards left to right it is negative.

Solve y=2x+6

y=8

X=-2

400

are proportional relationships linear?

Yes

400

What is the slope in the equation 

y=1/3x

1/3

400

If my line contains points (2,3) and (4,6) what is the slope?

3/2

I run 3 miles in 2 hours.  what is the slope

1.5

500

Are all linear relationships proportional?

No

500

what does the m in y=mx mean

it means constant of proportionality, rate of change and the slope
