Proportional Relationships - Second Edition (Grade 7)

This lesson set provides a study of Proportional Relationships. Students will learn to move from the grade 6 study of ratios and equations of the form px = q to the study of proportional relationships. They combine their previous understanding of the topics of both ratio and equation to examine tests that establish or refute the presence of a proportional relationship between two variables. Students will:  develop an understanding of proportional relationships;   make and confirm conjectures about tests for proportionality;   recognize proportional relationships visually when they are presented in equation or graphic form;   recognize proportional relationships in tables and contexts; and   articulate how to test for proportional relationships.   Standards: 7.RP.A.1, 7.RP.A.2, 7.RP.A.2.A, 7.RP.A.2.B, 7.RP.A.2.C
