Complete the Table below using the equation y=3x+1.
x ---------- y
-2 ---------
0 ----------
1/6 --------
My answers for y
-5
1
1.5
(There is a second step to this problem but I am going to discuss it after someone checks my work above.)
duh - show your work!
looks good so far
Ok, the next step is, How do I prove (show my work) that I got those answers?
To complete the table using the equation y=3x+1, you need to substitute the given values for x into the equation and solve for y. Let's go step-by-step:
For x = -2:
y = 3(-2) + 1
y = -6 + 1
y = -5
For x = 0:
y = 3(0) + 1
y = 0 + 1
y = 1
For x = 1/6:
y = 3(1/6) + 1
y = 1/2 + 1
y = 1 + 1/2
y = 3/2
y = 1.5
So, the completed table should be:
x ---------- y
-2 --------- -5
0 ---------- 1
1/6 -------- 1.5
Great job on the answers!
Now, if there is a second step you would like to discuss, please let me know and I'll be happy to assist you.
