MS MATH – WEDNESDAY WORKSHEET


Topic: Showing Proportional Relationships with Tables and Equations
Objective: I can find the rate (k) from a table and write an equation like y =
kx.

🔹 Part A – Real-Life Thinking


a. If 2 gallons of gas take a snowmachine 14 miles, how far can it go with
4 gallons?
b. If 3 pounds of fish cost $9, how much will 5 pounds cost?
c. What does “rate” mean in your own words?

🔹 Part B – Guided Practice: Find the Rate (k) and Equation


Fill in the missing values and write the equation y = kx.
y
Remember: k =
x
# x y k=y÷x Equation (y = kx)
1 2 14 ___ y = ___x
2 4 28 ___ y = ___x

3 3 21 ___ y = ___x
4 5 35 ___ y = ___x
5 6 42 ___ y = ___x
6 1 7 ___ y = ___x
7 7 49 ___ y = ___x

8 8 56 ___ y = ___x
9 9 63 ___ y = ___x
10 10 70 ___ y = ___x

Question: What pattern do you see in the x and y values?


Sentence Starter: “Each time x increases by 1, y increases by ___ because
the rate is ___.”

🔹 Part C – Student Ownership: Create Your Own Table


Choose a real-life situation from your village or daily life. Example ideas:

 Time walking and distance traveled


 Fish cleaned and time spent
 Gallons of gas and miles traveled
 Snowmachines and total cost of fuel
 Loaves of bread baked and flour used

Fill in the table with your own numbers. Then find the rate and write your
equation.

x (independent y (dependent Equation (y =


# k=y÷x
variable) variable) kx)
1 ___ ___ ___ y = ___x
2 ___ ___ ___ y = ___x
3 ___ ___ ___ y = ___x
4 ___ ___ ___ y = ___x
5 ___ ___ ___ y = ___x
6 ___ ___ ___ y = ___x
7 ___ ___ ___ y = ___x
8 ___ ___ ___ y = ___x
9 ___ ___ ___ y = ___x
10 ___ ___ ___ y = ___x

Explain in your own words:

My table shows that when ___ increases, ___ also increases by a rate of ___
each time.
This means my equation is y = ___x.

🔹 Part D – Real-World Reflection

1. If 3 gallons = 21 miles, what is the rate and equation?


2. “When I use more ___, I get more ___, so my equation is y = ___x.”
