alleryStart learning →A table of solutions for y = 4x - 2 needs a value for x equal to 2. What is the matching y-value?
Ay = 6
By = 8
Cy = 2
Dy = -6
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. y = 6
1. Substitute x equals 2 into the equation y equals 4x minus 2.
2. This gives y equals 4 times 2, minus 2.
3. 4 times 2 equals 8, and 8 minus 2 equals 6.
4. The ordered pair for this row of the table is (2, 6).
