Which statement(s) could describe the graph of a nonproportional relationship? A. The y-intercept is positive. B. The y-intercept is 0. C. The line intersects the origin. D. The y-intercept is negative.

Respuesta :

Answer:

A. The positive y-intercept.

D. The y-intercept is negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportional relationship is defined by the graph passing through the origin i.e. the y-intercept is equal to zero.

The equation of y proportional to x relationship is y = kx, which again denotes that the graph passes through the origin (0,0).

Now, the statements that can describe the graph of a non-proportional relationship are  

A. The positive y-intercept.

D. The y-intercept is negative. (Answer)

The true options are

  • (a) The y-intercept is positive and
  • (d) The y-intercept is negative

A non-proportional relationship graph has the following form:

[tex]\mathbf{y = mx + b}[/tex]

Where: m represents slope, and b represents the y-intercept.

For a non-proportional relationship graph

[tex]\mathbf{m \ne 0}[/tex] and [tex]\mathbf{b \ne 0}[/tex]

This means that:

The graph does not pass through the origin, and the y-intercept may be negative or positive

Hence, the true options are (a) and (d)
