Graph Using a Table of Values y=7x

$y = 7 x$

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

$y = 7 (- 2)$

Multiply $7$ by $- 2$ .

$y = - 14$

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

$y = 7 (- 1)$

Multiply $7$ by $- 1$ .

$y = - 7$

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

$y = 7 (0)$

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = 7 (0)$

Multiply $7$ by $0$ .

$y = 0$

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

$y = 7 (1)$

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = 7 (1)$

Multiply $7$ by $1$ .

$y = 7$

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

$y = 7 (2)$

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = 7 (2)$

Multiply $7$ by $2$ .

$y = 14$

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

$\begin{array}{c} x & y \\ - 2 & - 14 \\ - 1 & - 7 \\ 0 & 0 \\ 1 & 7 \\ 2 & 14 \end{array}$
