explain how it is possible that all proportional relationships are linear functions but not all linear functions are proportional relationships.

Proportional and linear functions are almost identical in form. The only difference is the addition of the “b” constant to the linear function. Indeed, a proportional relationship is just a linear relationship where b = 0, or to put it another way, where the line passes through the origin (0,0).

first, we define the variables:

x: number of years after 1950

f (x): amount of vinyl sold.

then, with the variables defined, we have:

68594 vinyl records were sold in 1958 > f (8) = 68594

91299 vinyl records were sold in 1961 > f (11) = 91299

38720 vinyl records were sold in 1952 > f (2) = 38720

161743 vinyl records were sold in 1967 > f (17) = 161743

i think it will be zero as slope has a formula of difference between initial and final distance divided by itz time interval
