Concept/skill: 
Recognize and represent proportional relationships between quantities.

Problem/activity:
You’re mixing ingredients for cookies. The recipe says to combine 6 tablespoons, or ¾ stick, of butter with 1 cup of sugar. You accidentally mix in a whole stick of butter (8 tablespoons) with the cup of sugar. How can you fix this?


Answer: 
No. Usually problems that teach recognizing and representing proportional relationships between quantities involve deciding whether two quantities are in a proportional relationship or identifying the constant of proportionality, and then representing proportional relationships by equations or explaining proportional relationship using coordinate graphs.

Now, determine whether the following problem or activity can enable students to understand the concepts or skills in the provided description.

problem_activity: Task
Suppose $P_1 = (0,5)$ and $P_2 = (3,−3)$. Sketch $P_1$ and
$P_2$. For which real numbers $m$ and $b$ does the graph of a linear function described by the equation $f(x) = mx+b$ contain $P_1$? Explain. Do any of these graphs also contain $P_2$? Explain.
Suppose $P_1 = (0,5)$ and $P_2 = (0,7)$.  Sketch $P_1$ and $P_2$.  Are there real numbers $m$ and $b$ for which the graph of a linear function described by the equation $f(x)=mx+b$ contains $P_1$ and $P_2$? Explain.
Now suppose $P_1= (c,d)$ and $P_2 = (g,h)$ and $c$ is not equal to $g$. Show that there is only one real number $m$ and only one real number $b$ for which the graph of $f(x)=mx+b$ contains the points $P_1$ and $P_2$.
