A graph shows the proportional relationship between the number of test questions a student gets correct, x, and the student’s test score, y. The ordered pair (1,5/4) is on the graph. What does the y- coordinate of the ordered pair represent in this relationship.

Answer:

  • The y-coordinate is 5/4, it represents a test score for one correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportional relationship is:

  • y = kx, where k is coefficient of proportion.

We have the ordered pair (1, 5/4), which represents:

  • 5/4 = k*1
  • k = 5/4

When x = 1, the y- coordinate is equal to the coefficient of proportionality.

In this case it represents a score for one correct answer.
