Answer:

Rule: Input ÷ -8 = Output

Output Blanks: -45, -28, -39, - 43 (top to bottom)

Explanation:

Let's start by finding the rule using the 2 given outputs.

Think about it like this. What do we have to do to 360 (the input) to get -45 (the output)?

We can see that the input is larger that the output, so start with division

360/x = -45

Multiply both sides of the equation by 1x

360 = -45x

Divide both sides of the equation by -45

x = -8

We now know that the rule is:

Input ÷ -8 = Output

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

Now that we have the rule, let's complete the function table.

224 (input).

224/-8 = -28

The output is -28

312 (input)

312/-8 = -39

The output is -39

See the attached image for the completed table with the values above.

Let me know if you have any questions!
