- Rules for an arithmetic sequence
- Understanding ratios · Extend the idea
In a multiplicative rule every pair of values has the same ratio of $y$ to $x$. That constant ratio is what equivalent ratios share.
- Representing a proportional relationship · Extend the idea
Two patterns whose terms always have the same ratio form a proportional relationship.
