change observed in a table, graph data or equation? How can I use these regular or predictable changes to make estimates or
predictions about other data values?

• Ability to recognize that multiplicative relationships are proportional
For example, if total cost t is proportional to the number of n of items purchased at a constant price p, the relationship between the
total cost and the number of items can be expressed as t = pn.
