The coordinate plane has the x-axis ranging from $-7$−7 to $7$7 and the y-axis ranging from $-7$−7 to $7$7. Both axes are marked with intervals of $1$1. A straight black line extends from the bottom-left to the top-right. The line passes through the x-axis at $\left(-5,0\right)$(−5,0). The line passes through the y-axis at $\left(0,5\right)$(0,5).

Outcomes

7.PFA.1

The student will investigate and analyze proportional relationships between two quantities using verbal descriptions, tables, equations in y = mx form, and graphs, including problems in context.

7.PFA.1a

Determine the slope, m, as the rate of change in a proportional relationship between two quantities given a table of values, graph, or contextual situation and write an equation in the form y = mx to represent the direct variation relationship. Slope may include positive or negative values (slope will be limited to positive values in a contextual situation).

7.PFA.1b

Identify and describe a line with a slope that is positive, negative, or zero (0), given a graph.

7.PFA.1e

Make connections between and among representations of a proportional relationship between two quantities using problems in context, tables, equations, and graphs. Slope may include positive or negative values (slope will be limited to positive values in a contextual situation).
