Graph Using a Table of Values y=16+0.5x

$y = 16 + 0.5 x$

Step 1

Substitute $- 2$ for $x$ and find the result for $y$ .

$y = 16 + 0.5 (- 2)$

Step 2

Simplify $16 + 0.5 (- 2)$ .

Multiply $0.5$ by $- 2$ .

$y = 16 - 1$

Subtract $1$ from $16$ .

$y = 15$

Step 3

Substitute $- 1$ for $x$ and find the result for $y$ .

$y = 16 + 0.5 (- 1)$

Step 4

Simplify $16 + 0.5 (- 1)$ .

Multiply $0.5$ by $- 1$ .

$y = 16 - 0.5$

Subtract $0.5$ from $16$ .

$y = 15.5$

Step 5

Substitute $0$ for $x$ and find the result for $y$ .

$y = 16 + 0.5 (0)$

Step 6

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = 16 + 0.5 (0)$

Simplify $16 + 0.5 (0)$ .

Multiply $0.5$ by $0$ .

$y = 16 + 0$

Add $16$ and $0$ .

$y = 16$

Step 7

Substitute $1$ for $x$ and find the result for $y$ .

$y = 16 + 0.5 (1)$

Step 8

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = 16 + 0.5 (1)$

Simplify $16 + 0.5 (1)$ .

Multiply $0.5$ by $1$ .

$y = 16 + 0.5$

Add $16$ and $0.5$ .

$y = 16.5$

Step 9

Substitute $2$ for $x$ and find the result for $y$ .

$y = 16 + 0.5 (2)$

Step 10

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = 16 + 0.5 (2)$

Simplify $16 + 0.5 (2)$ .

Multiply $0.5$ by $2$ .

$y = 16 + 1$

Add $16$ and $1$ .

$y = 17$

Step 11

This is a table of possible values to use when graphing the equation.

$\begin{array}{c} x & y \\ - 2 & 15 \\ - 1 & 15.5 \\ 0 & 16 \\ 1 & 16.5 \\ 2 & 17 \end{array}$
