Question

Use the function equation below to answer questions 2-4.

y = 6x - 3
(1) What is the value of y if x = -1?
(2)What is the value of y if x = 0?
(3)What is the value of y if x = 2?

Answer 1

When x = -1, y = -9. When x = 0, y = -3. When x = 2, y = 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of y when x = -1, we can substitute -1 into the function equation y = 6x - 3 and solve:

y = 6(-1) - 3 = -6 - 3 = -9

Similarly, for x = 0, we can substitute 0 into the equation:

y = 6(0) - 3 = 0 - 3 = -3

And for x = 2:

y = 6(2) - 3 = 12 - 3 = 9
