Learning Objective:''
We'will'identify'proportional'and'nonEproportional'relationships'by'graphing'them'
on'a'coordinate'plane'(G7M1L3)'
'

Concept Development:

We'can'take'ratio'tables'and'plot'the'data'on'a'coordinate'plane.''

x#axis:'This'is'the'horizontal'axis.'
'
y#axis:'this'is'the'vertical'axis.'
'
Origin:''The'point'where'the'xEaxis'and'the'yEaxis'intersect.''The'ordered'pair'at'the'
origin'is'(0,0).''
'
Independent.Variable:'this'always'goes'on'the'xEaxis.'Often,'this'variable'is'time.''
'
'
Dependent.Variable:'This'always'goes'on'the'yEaxis.''
Examples:''
In'a'race,'the'distance'you'run'is'dependent'on'how'long'you'run'fortherefore,'
distance'is'the'dependent'variable'and'time'is'the'independent'variable.'
If'you'have'2'cookies'for'every'3'ounces'of'milk,'the'amount'of'cookies'you'will'
eat'is'dependent'on'how'much'milk'you'haveso'cookies'is'dependent'and'milk'
is'dependent.''
If'you'are'depositing'money'into'a'bank'account'on'a'weekly'basis,'the'amount'
of'money'you'have'deposited'depends'on'how'many'weeks'have'passed,'so'
money'is'dependent,'time'is'independent.''

Consider'the'following'example:'Mari'sold'candy'bars'to'help'raise'money'for'the'
bridge'club.'The'table'below'shows'the'amount'of'candy'he'sold'to'the'amount'of'
money'he'received:'

candy'
Money'
dependent'variable?'

1.'Study'the'ratio'table.'Is'it'showing'a'proportional'relationship?'
2.'Graph'the'points'on'the'coordinate'plane.'''
2a.'Do'the'points'fall'in'a'line?'
2b.'Does'the'line'pass'through'the'origin?'
3.'If'yes'to'both'questions,'then'relationship'is'proportional.''
