1

Explain, in your own words, what a proportional relationship is and provide a real-world example not mentioned in the video.

2

In the equation y = kx, 'k' represents the constant of proportionality. If you are given a table of x and y values, describe the steps you would take to find the value of 'k'.

Quick comprehension check

A store sells apples where the price (y) is directly proportional to the weight in pounds (x). If 5 pounds of apples cost $6, write an equation that represents this relationship. The distance (y) a car travels is proportional to the time (x) it drives at a constant speed. If the car travels 150 miles in 3 hours, write an equation that represents this relationship.
