Question

For an equation of a proportional relationship in the form $y=mx$, choose the correct value(s) of $m$.

• A. $m=$ Slope.
• B. $m=$ Unit rate.
• C. $m=$ Constant of proportionality
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D All of the above

Detailed step-by-step solution:
● Constant of proportionality $=\frac{y}{x}=m$
● Unit rate is the rate at which the second quantity changes with respect to the first quantity.
● Unit rate in y = mx will be the change in y with respect to unit change in $x$. Unit rate $=\frac{y}{x}=m$
● Slope of the graph is equal to the rise divided by run, sometimes also called rise over run.


Option D is correct.
