y = - 4 x + 40 Which table gives three values of x and their corresponding values of y

Question

y = - 4 x + 40 Which table gives three values of x and their corresponding values of y for the given equation?

Accepted Answer

Choice C is correct. Each of the given choices gives three values of x : 0 , 1 , and 2 . Substituting 0 for x in the given equation yields y = - 4 0 + 40 , or y = 40 . Therefore, when x = 0 , the corresponding value of y for the given equation is 40 . Substituting 1 for x in the given equation yields y = - 4 1 + 40 , or y = 36 . Therefore, when x = 1 , the corresponding value of y for the given equation is 36 . Substituting 2 for x in the given equation yields y = - 4 2 + 40 , or y = 32 . Therefore, when x = 2 , the corresponding value of y for the given equation is 32 . Choice C gives three values of x , 0 , 1 , and 2 , and their corresponding values of y , 40 , 36 , and 32 , respectively, for the given equation. Choice A is incorrect. This table gives three values of x and their corresponding values of y for the equation y = - 4 x . Choice B is incorrect. This table gives three values of x and their corresponding values of y for the equation y = 4 x + 40 . Choice D is incorrect. This table gives three values of x and their corresponding values of y for the equation y = 4 x .
