Question

14.
If a table has the values (3,9), (4,12), and (5,15), it represents a proportional relationship.
True
False

Answer 1

True.

A proportional relationship means that the ratio of the two values remains constant.

Calculating the ratios for the given points:

1. For (3, 9): \( \frac{9}{3} = 3 \)
2. For (4, 12): \( \frac{12}{4} = 3 \)
3. For (5, 15): \( \frac{15}{5} = 3 \)

Since the ratios are all equal (3), the table represents a proportional relationship.
