Question

tell whether the relationship is proportional. explain your reasoning.
x | 9 | 15 | 18 | 36
y | 18 | 24 | 27 | 45
select the answers from the drop - down lists to correctly complete the sentence.
drop - down the ratio of y to x drop - down

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate y/x for each pair

For (9,18): $\frac{18}{9}=2$
For (15,24): $\frac{24}{15}=1.6$
For (18,27): $\frac{27}{18}=1.5$
For (36,45): $\frac{45}{36}=1.25$

Step2: Check ratio consistency

All calculated ratios are not equal.

Answer:

No; the ratio of y to x is not constant for all pairs of values, so the relationship is not proportional.
