Question

How would you model the function rule Y=-2x-3 with a table of values. can you pretty please show your work i just need help i've been on this problem for like 20 mins

Answer 1

y = -2x - 3

First make a table, then start inserting the x's you choose and figure out the y's.

x y
----------------------
-2 -2(-2) -3
4 - 3
1
-----------------------
-1 -2(-1) - 3
2 - 3
-1
------------------------
0 -2(0) - 3
0 - 3
-3
-------------------------
1 -2(1) - 3
-2 - 3
-5
--------------------------
2 -2(2) - 3
-4 - 3
-7
--------------------------

Now you can plot the points into a graph.
(-2, 1), (-1, -1), (0, -3), (1, -5), (2, -7)
