Points A and B lie on the graph of the equation y = 7x. What are the y-coordinates for each point? Point A: (−2, ?) Point B: (4, ?)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

point A has a x coordinate of -2 ... find y from the equation y=7x then u will get the y coordinate...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

similarly for B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Think of functions like a machine. You put in an x value, it spits out a y value.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Your function is y=7x. Plug in -2, what do you get for y?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It should look like: y=7(-2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What does that equal?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-9?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's multiplication

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7*-2
