No, it's not proportional.
4. A student argues that
does not represent a proportional relationship between x and y because we need to multiply one variable by the same constant to get the other one and not divide it by a constant.

A steel beam can be cut to different lengths for a project. Assuming the weight of a steel beam is proportional to its length, what information would you need to know to write an equation that represents this relationship?
The total length of the steel beam.
The number of different lengths that the steel beam can be cut into.
The total weight of the steel beam.
The weight of steel per 1 meter of length.
If the steel beam is 40 meters long and weighs 200 pounds.
Which equation is correct to show the relationship between length (x) and weight (y).
y=
