To determine the relationship between the x-axis and y-axis in the graph, we would need to analyze the image or data points presented in the graph. Since I can't see the graph itself, I can provide some general guidance on how to identify the relationship:
-
Directly Proportional (Constant Rate): If the graph is a straight line going upward, as the y-axis increases, the x-axis also increases at a constant rate.
-
Inverse Relationship: If the graph slopes downward, then as the y-axis increases, the x-axis decreases.
-
Non-Linear Relationship: If the graph is curved, then the relationship between the x and y axes is not at a constant rate.
Based on your options:
- "When the y-axis increases, the x-axis increases at a constant rate" describes a linear graph.
- "When the y-axis increases, the x-axis decreases" suggests an inverse relationship.
- "When the y-axis increases, the x-axis increases at a non-constant rate" implies a non-linear relationship.
- "When the x-axis increases, the y-axis decreases" suggests an inverse relationship as well.
Please analyze the graph according to these characteristics to select the correct option. If you can describe the graph or give more context, I'd be happy to help you further!
