Does the graph show the proportional relationship y = 2x? * 1 point (0,0) (1,2) (2,4)

1 answer

To determine if the given points \((0,0)\), \((1,2)\), and \((2,4)\) indicate a proportional relationship defined by the equation \(y = 2x\), we can check if each point satisfies the equation.

  1. For the point \((0,0)\): \[ y = 2x \implies 0 = 2(0) \implies 0 = 0 \quad \text{(true)} \]

  2. For the point \((1,2)\): \[ y = 2x \implies 2 = 2(1) \implies 2 = 2 \quad \text{(true)} \]

  3. For the point \((2,4)\): \[ y = 2x \implies 4 = 2(2) \implies 4 = 4 \quad \text{(true)} \]

Since all the points satisfy the equation \(y = 2x\), we can conclude that the graph does indeed show a proportional relationship. Thus, the answer is yes, the graph shows a proportional relationship.
