You can tell if a graph represents a proportional relationship by identifying the y-intercept, or the point of the line that crosses the y-axis.

If the y-intercept is 0, then the relationship is proportional. This is called a direct relationship.

If the y-intercept is anything other than 0, then the relationship is not proportional. This is called an indirect relationship.

I hope this helps!

The graph shows the relationship between the number of pounds of
Damm [24]

Given:

The graph shows the relationship between the number of pounds of  apples purchased and the total cost of the apples.

To find:

The cost of 1 pound of apples.

Solution:

We need to find the slope of the line to get the cost of 1 pound of apples.

From the given graph it is clear that the line passes through two points (0,0) and (2,3). So, the slope of the line is

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\dfrac{3-0}{2-0}

m=\dfrac{3}{2}

m=1.5

Therefore, the cost of 1 pound of apples is $1.5.
