Given the equation:

y = 6x - 6

Let's find the table that contains only points that lie on the line represented by the equation.

To find the correct table, input the given values of x and evaluate to find y. If the values of the calculated y corresponds with the given value of y, the table is correct.

Table A:

When x = 0, y = 6

Substitute 0 for x:

y = 6(0) - 6

y = 0 - 6

y = -6

This table is not correct

Table B:

When x = 2, y = 6

Substitute 2 for x:

y = 6(2) - 6

y = 12 - 6

y = 6

When x = -2, y = -18

Substitute -2 for x:

y = 6(-2) - 6

y = -12 - 6

y = -18

Since the value of x corresponds with the calculated value, this table (Table B) contains only points that lie on the line represented by the equation: y = 6x - 6

ANSWER:

Table B
