Answer Key

1. Yes; y/x = 5 for every nonzero x and the graph passes through (0, 0).2. No; the nonzero constant term means it does not pass through (0, 0).3. Yes; y/x = 12 for every nonzero x and the graph passes through (0, 0).4. No; the nonzero constant term means it does not pass through (0, 0).5. Yes; y/x = 4 for every nonzero x and the graph passes through (0, 0).6. No; the nonzero constant term means it does not pass through (0, 0).7. Yes; y/x = 11 for every nonzero x and the graph passes through (0, 0).8. No; the nonzero constant term means it does not pass through (0, 0).9. Yes; y/x = 9 for every nonzero x and the graph passes through (0, 0).10. No; the nonzero constant term means it does not pass through (0, 0).11. Yes; y/x = 8 for every nonzero x and the graph passes through (0, 0).12. No; the nonzero constant term means it does not pass through (0, 0).
