Proportional vs. Non-Proportional• If two quantities are proportional, then

they have a constant ratio. – To have a constant ratio means two quantities

have the same unit rate.

• If the ratio is not constant, the two quantities are said to be non-proportional.– So, the two quantities do not have the same

unit rate.

Proportional Relationships• Will always go through the origin on a graph.

(0,0)• Graph will always be a straight line.

We typically put time (hours) on the x-axis, and the earnings ($) on the y-axis.

Set up the graph paper to fit the data in the chart.

You try: Let’s graph this proportional relationship from Ex. 1 on an xy-plane.
