Explain the process of creating a table of values for the linear equation y = 2x + 3. What x values would you choose, and what corresponding y values would you calculate?
Given the equation y = -4x + 1, create a table of values for x = -1, 0, 1, and 2. List the ordered pairs that you would plot on a graph.

Quick comprehension check
“For the linear equation y = 4x - 3, create a table of values using x = -1, 0, 1, and 2. List the corresponding ordered pairs that you would plot on a graph. For the linear equation y = -2x + 6, create a table of values using x = 0, 1, 2, and 3. List the corresponding ordered pairs that you would plot on a graph.”
