HI!!

2. misty1212

i think all you need to do is pick 7 numbers for x and plug them in

3. misty1212

for example if you pick $$x=0$$ then you get $$y=0+2=2$$ and if you pick $$x=1$$ you get $$y=5\times 1+2=7$$ and so on

4. misty1212

the truth is of course that $$y$$ can be any number, so it is not really clear what it means "find 7 values of y"

5. anonymous

what @misty1212 said y can be anything is that the exact way the question is written or are you supposed to write maybe 7 ordered pairs like $(0,2),(1,7),(2,12)...$

6. anonymous

i think seven ordered pairs

because it wants me to put it in a table then on a graph

9. misty1212

ok then do what misty said

10. misty1212

lol

11. misty1212

did you get the $$(0,2)$$ part?

12. anonymous

sorta

13. misty1212

the equation is $y=5x+2$ right?

14. anonymous

yes

15. misty1212

ok so if $$x$$ is $$0$$ we get $y=5\times 0+2=2$ right?q

16. anonymous

yes

17. misty1212

that means the ordered pair is $$(0,2)$$

18. misty1212

now lets let $$x=1$$ we get $$y=5\times 1+2=7$$

19. misty1212

so another ordered pair would be $$(1,7)$$ ok so far?

20. anonymous

okay

21. misty1212

how about if $$x=2$$ what is $$y$$ then ?

22. anonymous

12

23. misty1212

ok good now we have 3 ordered pairs $(0,2),(1,7),(2,12)$ all you need is four more ....

24. anonymous

oh okay i get it wow im slow haha sorry but thank you alot

25. misty1212

lol it is not like you are born knowing it, but you are right, it is not that hard $\huge \color\magenta\heartsuit$
