Answer:
Yes, but none of the answer choices exactly describe the proportional relationship. The closest choice is A.
Step-by-step explanation:
The form of the equation of a proportional relation is y = kx, where k is the coefficient.
In the given case y =1/2x, where k = 1/2, so it represents proportional relationship.
Answer choices:
A. Yes, because the coefficient of x is positive
- - it is yes, but the coefficient can also be negative
B. No, because it is not in the form y=kx
- - it is no, as it is in the for of y = kx
C. No, because its graph does not pass through the origin
- - no, it doesn't matter if the graph passes through the origin or not
D. Yes, because its graph is a line that passes through the origin
- - no as it is not necessary the graph to pass through the origin
