What is the relationship among the unit rate, slope and constant rate of change of a proportional linear relationship?

 A proportional relationship between two quantities is one in which the two quantities vary directly with one and other. If one item is doubled, the other, related item is also doubled. Because of this, it is also called a direct variation. The equations of such relationships are always in the form y = mx , and when graphed produce a line that passes through the origin. In this equation, m is the slope of the line, and it is also called the unit rate, the rate of change, or the constant of proportionality of the function. 

Iwould say they are complementary because that’s the division of a 90 degree angle and it’s split between the middle of them
