Mr. Espinoza does not like to go running. Instead, the table shows his walking pace.


a. Is this still proportional?

Check with the table and by graphing, then explain using 2 different strategies

Life Savings--Andrea is plotting how much money she has in her bank account over time. She starts with $30 and every week she saves $5 more.

Is the following statement true or false?

"Using only the graph, Student McStudentson can tell that this is a proportional relationship because it is a straight line."


SPICY Problem (try if you have time)

BE CREATIVE--Create your own table and graph that shows a relationship that is NOT proportional.

Make sure to...
1) Write out a word problem
2) Complete the table
3) Complete the graph and explain why it is not proportional.
