About this worksheet

Graph a steady rate and read it. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

I can find the y-value (or the x-value) of any point on a steady-rate graph, from the graph, a table, a rule or a story.
I can say what (0, 0), (1, r) and any other point on the line mean in the story.
I can compare two steady-rate graphs by finding the amount for 1 on each.

Standard: 7.RP.A.2d

Words to know

point (x, y): A spot on a graph: x tells how far across, y how far up.

origin (0, 0): The corner where both numbers are zero. A steady-rate line starts here.

unit rate r: The amount of y for exactly 1 of x. It is the up number of the point (1, r).

steady rate: The amount for 1 never changes, so the graph is a straight line through (0, 0).

rule: A way to get y from x, like y = 3x ÷ 4.

Common mistakes

Your child wrote the two numbers of a point the wrong way round.

Your child added to find the next value on the graph.

Your child gave an amount from the point or row they were shown instead of the amount for the x-value in the question.

What to say

Ask: which number goes across, and which goes up?

Ask: if 1 minute gives 3 gallons, how much do 4 minutes give?

Ask: is that the amount for the number we were asked about?
