Creating Tables of Values

Substitute each x-value into the rule, then calculate the matching y-value. Check how y changes as x increases.

Substitute and calculate

1.For the rule y = 4x − 3, find y when x is 0, 1, 2 and 3. Complete the table.

x

0

1

2

3

y

2.Using y = 4x − 3, show the substitution and calculation needed to find y when x = 2.
3.For y = 4x − 3, how much does y change each time x increases by 1?
  • It increases by 1.
  • It increases by 3.
  • It increases by 4.
  • It decreases by 4.
4.For the rule y = 2x + 5, calculate y for x = −2, −1, 0 and 1. Fill in each matching value.

x

1

y

5.In the table for y = 2x + 5, what happens to y when x increases by 1?

Use a rule in context

6.A paddleboard hire costs $8 to book, plus $6 for each hour. The total cost in dollars is y = 6x + 8, where x is the number of hours. Find the costs for 1, 2, 3 and 4 hours.

Cost ($)

7.According to the paddleboard hire rule y = 6x + 8, how much does the cost go up for each extra hour?

Create and explain

8.Use the rule y = 3x − 1 to make a table for x = 0, 1, 2 and 3. Write the four matching y-values.

x

y

9.In your own words, explain what the table for y = 3x − 1 tells you about x and y.
