7th Grade MAT Targeted Standards Domain (RP) Ratios and Proportional Relationships Cluster: Analyze proportional relationships and use them to solve real-world and mathematical problems
MAT-07.RP.02 Recognize and represent proportional relationships between quantities.
a. Decide whether two quantities are in a proportional relationship, e.g., by testing for equivalent ratios in a table or graphing on a coordinate plane and observing whether the graph is a straight line through the origin.
b. Identify the constant of proportionality (unit rate) in tables, graphs, equations, diagrams, and verbal descriptions of proportional relationships.
c. Represent proportional relationships by equations.
d. Explain what a point (x, y) on the graph of a proportional relationship means in terms of the situation, with special attention to the points (0, 0) and (1, r) where r is the unit rate.
Student Learning Targets:
Knowledge Targets
I can understand that a proportional relationship is when two ratios are equal
Reasoning Targets
I can determine when a proportional relationship is being represented
I can determine that ratios are proportional if their cross products are equal
