What is a nonproportional relationship?

Any relationship in which at least one pair of measurements has a different ratio to that for other pairs. Equivalently, it is a relationship in which all the points cannot be plotted as a straight line through the origin.


How are using graphs equations and tables similar when distinguishing between proportional and nonproportional linear relationships?

Graphs, equations, and tables all provide ways to represent linear relationships, and they can be used to determine if a relationship is proportional or nonproportional. In a proportional relationship, the graph will show a straight line passing through the origin, the equation will have the form (y = kx) (where (k) is a constant), and the table will exhibit a constant ratio between (y) and (x). Conversely, a nonproportional relationship will show a line that does not pass through the origin, have an equation in a different form (like (y = mx + b) with (b \neq 0)), and display varying ratios in the table.


What is a linear function that goes through the origin?

it is just that- a linear function that goes through ther origin. ======================================================= Any equation y = ax, where a is a constant, will do so.


What is elliptical geometry and examples?

Elliptical geometry is like Euclidean geometry except that the "fifth postulate" is denied. Elliptical geometry postulates that no two lines are parallel.One example: define a point as any line through the origin. Define a line as any plane through the origin. In this system, the first four postulates of Euclidean geometry hold; through two points, there is exactly one line that contains them (i.e.: given two lines through the origin, there is one plane that contains them) and so on. However, it is nottrue that given a line and a point not on the line that there is a parallel line through the point (that is, given a plane through the origin, and a line through the origin, not on the plane, there is no other plane through the origin that is parallel to the given plane).


Y-intercept of a line through the origin is?
