Answers: 4, 3, 2

Each number gets its own box, and the values are entered in that exact order.

============================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

x and y are placeholders for numbers.

If we replace x with -1, then we get

y = -x+3

y = -(x)+3

y = -(-1)+3 ... replace x with -1

y = 1+3

y = 4

This means that x = -1 leads to y = 4. So we'll write 4 underneath the "-1" in the y row.

------------------------

Similarly, if x = 0, then

y = -x+3

y = -0+3

y = 0+3

y = 3

Leading to 3 being the next item we input.

------------------------

Finally, if x = 1, we get this y value

y = -x+3

y = -1+3

y = 2

Which is the last value in the bottom row.

------------------------

The order of the y values in the bottom row is therefore: 4, 3, 2

This means the points (-1, 4), (0, 3), and (1, 2) are on the line y = -x+3.

Side note: The equation y = -x+3 has slope -1 and y intercept 3.
