Answer:
slope, m = 3
y-intercept, b = 0
Proportional
Step-by-step explanation:
If we assume this is a straight line, we can calculate the slope between two of the given points. I'll pick (-2,-6) and 2,6).
Slope is the Rise (the change in y) over the Run (the corresponding change in x).
Rise for these two points: 6 - (-6) = 12
Run for the points is: 2-(-2) = 4
Rise/Run (Slope) = 12/3 = 4
The line becomes y=3x+b
b is the y-intercept. We can either solve for b by entering one of the points, but the y-intercept is the value of y when x=0. Behold: one of the points is (0,0), so we already have b. It is 0.
y=3x+0
y=3x is the equation.
slope, m = 3
y-intercept, b = 0
A non-proportional graph is a straight line that does not go through the origin. A proportional graph is one that does, so this is a proportional graph.
