Question

Complete the table of values for the equation 2y +6x =2

Answer 1

x 0 1 2 3

y 1 -2 -5 -8

Explanation:

Solve the equation for y.

2y + 6x = 2

2y = -6x + 2

y = -3x + 1

Let x = 0: y = -3(0) + 1

x = 0; y = 1 (already on table)

Let x = 1; y = -3(1) + 1 = -2

x = 1; y = -2

Let x = 2; y = -3(2) + 1 = -5

x = 2; y = -5

Let x = 3; y = -3(3) + 1 = -8

x = 3; y = -8

x 0 1 2 3

y 1 -2 -5 -8
