Answer: The answer is y=3x-8

Step-by-step explanation: All you have to do is plug in the x values and see what you get for y. For example: when you plug in -3 for x. y=3(-3)-8 than you multiply the -3 by 3 and that give you y=-9-8 which equals y=-17 so that shows you the equation works.

plugging in -2 for x

y=3(-2)-8

y=-6-8

y=-14

I hope this helps!!!

Answer:

y = 3x -8

Explanation:

You can try a point in the function rules and see if it works. The first (x, y) pair is suitable for finding the right answer:

y = -3(-3) -8 = -1 ≠ -17 . . . . eliminates the first choice

y = 1/3(-3) -8 = -9 ≠ -17 . . . . eliminates the second choice

y = 3(-3) -8 = -17 . . . . . the third choice is viable

y = 1/3(-3) +8 = 7 ≠ -17 . . . . eliminates the last choice

__

Only the third choice is a possible solution. Checking other points from the table verifies this as the correct one.
