It is best to first graph the points to get the answer....

anonymous · Answer

See, I put in -12 and it said it was wrong.

563blackghost · Answer

Hmm...

anonymous · Answer

It's asking for an equation I think.

563blackghost · Answer

But it says what is the output...wouldnt make sense to put an equation....cause it would be (5,-12)

anonymous · Answer

My options to fill in the blank are ?+?, ?-?, ?x?, or a fraction.. @563blackghost

563blackghost · Answer

I wouldn't know....sorry :(

anonymous · Answer

They said the answer was -1 x n -7 Does that make sense to you? @563blackghost

563blackghost · Answer

Well if we input 5 which would be n we would get the equation...$$-1 \times 5 -7 = -12$$This would ultimately equal -12 so that can be the answer....
