Question

The graph of a proportional relationship passes through (12,16) and (1,y). find y​

Answer 1

Answer:

4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportional relationship is a relationship that crosses through the origin or (0,0). This means the slope of the line can be found by subtracting the points (12,16) and (0,0) in the slope formula.

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{16-0}{12-0}= \frac{16}{12}=\frac{4}{3}$

So the slope is 4/3 and must be the value between any two points on the line.

This means the function moves from (0,0) to (1, 4/3).
