y=x+
To find the rule for the table, we need to determine the relationship between the values of x and y.
Looking at the table, it appears that the y-values are decreasing by 29 each time x increases by 1. This means that the equation has a slope of -29.
We can write the equation in the form y = mx + b, where m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept. To find the missing numbers, we need to find the value of b.
We can start by using any of the points in the table. Let's use the point (1, 16):
16 = -29(1) + b
Simplifying that equation, we get:
16 = -29 + b
To isolate b, we can add 29 to both sides:
16 + 29 = b
45 = b
Therefore, the completed equation is:
y = -29x + 45

I NEED HELP!!!!
note that y decreases by 29 for each increase of 1 in x.
so, expect something like y = -29x
However, since 16 = -29+45,
y = -29x + 45
