Michael sold 2 flowers in 4 hours, 3 flowers in 6 hours, 4 flowers in 8 hours, and 5 flowers in 10 hours. Which statement correctly describes this situation?(2 points) Responses The given situation does not represent a proportional relationship because the graph of the given data does not form a straight line through the origin. The given situation does not represent a proportional relationship because the graph of the given data does not form a straight line through the origin. The given situation represents a proportional relationship because the graph of the given data forms a straight line through the origin. The given situation represents a proportional relationship because the graph of the given data forms a straight line through the origin. The given situation does not represent a proportional relationship because the graph of the given data forms a straight line through the origin. The given situation does not represent a proportional relationship because the graph of the given data forms a straight line through the origin. The given situation represents a proportional relationship because the graph of the given data does not form a straight line through the origin.
The given situation does not represent a proportional relationship because the graph of the given data does not form a straight line through the origin.
The given situation does not represent a proportional relationship because the graph of the given data does not form a straight line through the origin.
To determine whether a situation represents a proportional relationship, we need to analyze whether the data forms a straight line through the origin on a graph.
Let's plot the data points on a graph:
(4, 2)
(6, 3)
(8, 4)
(10, 5)
To create a graph, we'll plot the hours (x-axis) on the horizontal axis and the number of flowers sold (y-axis) on the vertical axis.
From the plotted points, we can see that they form a straight line through the origin. Therefore, the given situation represents a proportional relationship.
So the correct statement is:
"The given situation represents a proportional relationship because the graph of the given data forms a straight line through the origin."
