Representations of Proportional Relationships

2
Government agencies and civil rights groups monitor enrollment data at universities to ensure that different groups are fully represented. One study focused on the enrollment of women at a certain university. The study found that three out of every five students enrolled were women.
Use the findings of the study to write each ratio.

Multiple Choice
The study found that three out of every five students enrolled were
women.
Write the ratio for:
The number of enrolled female students to the total number of students.

Use the findings of the enrollment study to make predictions
Determine the number of enrolled female students for each given total number of enrolled students.
15 total students
53=20?
5 x 4 = 20 so we will need to multiply 3 x 4 = 12 the answer is 12.

Comparing Ratios and Graphs
The lines y1 and y2 each represent a proportional relationship. One line represents the proportional relationship between the number of females enrolled and the total number of students. The other line represents the proportional relationship between the number of males enrolled and the total number of students.
13
Multiple Choice
Which line represents females?
y1
y2
14
Multiple Choice
Which line represents males?
y1
y2
15
Multiple Choice
The ratio of the number of students who enjoy music to the total number of students is slightly more than the ratio of female students to the total number of students.
What would the line comparing students who enjoy music to the total number of students look like on the graph?
steeper than y1
(above the y1 line)
in between y1 and y2
less steep than y2
(below the y2 line)
Not able to graph this line

Proportional Relationships
A proportional relationship is one in which the ratio of the inputs
to the outputs is constant. For example, the ratio of women to men
at a university is 3 : 2. Proportional relationships are always written in
the form y = kx, where x represents an input value, y represents an
output value, and k represents some constant that is not equal to 0.
The constant k is called the constant of proportionality.
