Graph Using a Table of Values y=3x+6

$y = 3 x + 6$

Step 1

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

$y = 3 (- 2) + 6$

Step 2

Simplify $3 (- 2) + 6$ .

Multiply $3$ by $- 2$ .

$y = - 6 + 6$

Add $- 6$ and $6$ .

$y = 0$

Step 3

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

$y = 3 (- 1) + 6$

Step 4

Simplify $3 (- 1) + 6$ .

Multiply $3$ by $- 1$ .

$y = - 3 + 6$

Add $- 3$ and $6$ .

$y = 3$

Step 5

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

$y = 3 (0) + 6$

Step 6

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = 3 (0) + 6$

Simplify $3 (0) + 6$ .

Multiply $3$ by $0$ .

$y = 0 + 6$

Add $0$ and $6$ .

$y = 6$

Step 7

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

$y = 3 (1) + 6$

Step 8

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = 3 (1) + 6$

Simplify $3 (1) + 6$ .

Multiply $3$ by $1$ .

$y = 3 + 6$

Add $3$ and $6$ .

$y = 9$

Step 9

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

$y = 3 (2) + 6$

Step 10

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = 3 (2) + 6$

Simplify $3 (2) + 6$ .

Multiply $3$ by $2$ .

$y = 6 + 6$

Add $6$ and $6$ .

$y = 12$

Step 11

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

$\begin{array}{c} x & y \\ - 2 & 0 \\ - 1 & 3 \\ 0 & 6 \\ 1 & 9 \\ 2 & 12 \end{array}$
