D) because only 4 is the common factor in the equation.
The correct answer is C. A 2-column table with 3 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries negative 5, 0, 3. Column 2 is labeled y with entries negative 18, negative 2, 10.
Explanation:
The purpose of an equation is to show the equivalence between two mathematical expressions. This implies in the equation "–2 + 4x = y" the value of y should always be the same that -2 + 4x. Additionally, if a table is created with different values of x and y the equivalence should always be true. This occurs only in the third option.
x y
5 -18
0 -2
3 10
First row:
-2 + 4 (5) = y (5 is the value of x which is first multyply by 4)
-2 + 20 = -18 (value of y in the table)
Second row:
-2 + 4 (0) y
-2 + 0 = -2
Third row:
-2 + 4 (3) = y
-2 + 12 = 10
- 4 w - 4 = - 24
- 4w = - 20
w = 5
It will increase by 5/9 of a degree.
If you convert the given equation into slope intercept form, you will have:
c = (5/9)f + 160/9
In this form, it is easier to see the slope. The line would be increase by a rate of 5/9.
