Question

if the table is going up by 5. and starts with 2 how would i write a rule?

Answer 1

simply y=2x+5

Answer 2

y=2x+5 must be your equation with that problem.. to make it sure, substitute the value of x by 1,2,3,4,5.........

Answer 3

so the table is something like



the number that the pattern increases by... if its always the same is associated with a letter

the +2 is the starting point of the pattern

you said the pattern starts at 2 and then increase by 5

and the result is y = 5x + 2
