Circle the best answer, or write your answer on the line.

  1. “With the arrow × 6 beside both columns. The graph of the rate starts at (0, 0)” Tala's bathtub fills 3 gallons each minute (a duck waits). On the rate's graph, the table row 1 | 3 grows × 6 to the point at 6 minutes. What is that point's y-value?

  2. Esme rides a scooter 3 city blocks every minute. The line through (0, 0) has minutes across (x) and blocks up (y). Which point has x = 6, written as (x, y)?

  3. Kira's class printer prints 20 pages every minute. The line through (0, 0) has minutes across (x) and pages up (y). Which point has x = 3, written as (x, y)?

  4. Pia's sprout gets 2 cups of water every day. The line through (0, 0) has days across (x) and cups of water up (y). Which point has x = 5, written as (x, y)?

  5. Tala rides a bike path at a steady pace, ringing the bell at every bridge. The graph shows hours and miles. How many miles go with 4 hours?

  6. Luz's printer hums a happy tune while it prints at a steady speed. The graph shows minutes and pages. How many pages go with 6 minutes?

  7. Ari's bathtub fills at a steady rate (a rubber duck supervises). The graph shows minutes and gallons. How many gallons go with 12 minutes?

  8. Noah bakes cookies, and the recipe grows at a steady rate. The graph shows cups of flour and cups of sugar. How many cups of sugar go with 12 cups of flour?

  9. Luz fills a bucket at a steady rate. The graph is a line through (0, 0), with minutes across and gallons up. It passes through (1, 9). What does (1, 9) tell?

    • 9 gallons for 1 minute.
    • 10 gallons for 1 minute.
    • 1 gallon for 9 minutes.
  10. Jun bakes cookies. The graph is a line through (0, 0), with batches across and cups of flour up. It passes through (1, 3). What does (1, 3) tell?

    • 1 cup of flour for 3 batches.
    • 4 cups of flour for 1 batch.

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?

Questions parents ask
