The graph of a proportional relationship is shown. What is the amount of savings per
week?
Money
470
376
A) $94/week
B) $47/week
C) $18.80/week
D) $23.50/week

 B) $47/week

Explanation:

Because the graph goes through the origin, we can simply divide the y value over the x value. Do so for any point on the diagonal line.

For example, picking (x,y) = (2, 94) leads to k = y/x = 94/2 = 47 being the constant of proportionality and also the amount of savings per week.

You can think of it like this:

2 weeks = $94 in savings

2/2 weeks = $94/2 in savings ... divide both sides by 2

1 week = $47 in savings

leading to the savings rate of $47 per week

Side note: This linear equation is y = 47x. It is in the form y = kx with k = 47. It is a direct proportion equation. The constant of proportionality is also the slope. All direct proportion equations are linear and go through the origin.

table 3 represents a direct variation function. : )

hi there!
