A proportional graph is a straight line that goes through the origin while a non-proportional graph is a straight line that doesn't go through the origin.
y = mx + b
the b represents the y-intercept, so -3 is the y-intercept in the equation y = 3x -3
therefore, the line doesn't go through the origin and is a non-proportional equation

Let's assume the frequency of sound be f and wave length is w.
Given that, the frequency of sound varies inversely as the wavelength.
So, we can set up an equation as following:
f*w = k Where k= constant of variation.
Other information is, the frequency of a musical note is 276 cycles per second when the wavelength is 1.2m.
So, next step is to plug in f = 276 and w = 1.2 in the above equation to get the value of k.
276 * 1.2 = k
So, k = 331.2
Next step is to plug in k = 331.2 in the above equation. So,
f * w = 331.2
Now we need to find the wave length : w when frequency : f = 600.
Therefore,
600 * w = 331.2
w = \frac{331.2}{600}
So, w = 0.552
Hence, the wave length is 0.552 m.
Hope this helps you!.
