Graph Using a Table of Values y=8x

$y = 8 x$

Step 1

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

$y = 8 (- 2)$

Step 2

Multiply $8$ by $- 2$ .

$y = - 16$

Step 3

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

$y = 8 (- 1)$

Step 4

Multiply $8$ by $- 1$ .

$y = - 8$

Step 5

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

$y = 8 (0)$

Step 6

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = 8 (0)$

Multiply $8$ by $0$ .

$y = 0$

Step 7

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

$y = 8 (1)$

Step 8

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = 8 (1)$

Multiply $8$ by $1$ .

$y = 8$

Step 9

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

$y = 8 (2)$

Step 10

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = 8 (2)$

Multiply $8$ by $2$ .

$y = 16$

Step 11

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

$\begin{array}{c} x & y \\ - 2 & - 16 \\ - 1 & - 8 \\ 0 & 0 \\ 1 & 8 \\ 2 & 16 \end{array}$
