Complete the table of values for the linear function 3x+2y=−6.
Before completing the table of values, solve the given function in terms of ‘y’. This step is not necessary, but it does simplify the calculations.

Example B
Use technology to create a table of values for the linear function f(x)=−12x+4.
When the table is set up, you choose the beginning number as well as the pattern for the numbers in the table. In this table, the beginning value for ‘x’ is –2 and the difference between each number is +2. The table is consecutive, even numbers. When consecutive numbers are used as the input numbers (x−values), there is a definite pattern in the output numbers (y−values). This will be expanded upon in a later lesson.
Example C
Complete the table of values for the following linear function, and use those values to graph the function.
x−2y=4x−x−2y=−x+4−2y=−x+4−2y−2=−x−2+4−2y=12x−2

Vocabulary
Linear Function
A linear function is a relation between two variables, usually x and y, in which each value of the independent variable (x) is mapped to one and only one value of the dependent variable (y).

Summary
In this lesson, you have learned how to evaluate a linear function with given values. These values were given in table form. The table was completed by entering the values obtained from substituting the given values for ‘x’ into the linear function. These values were the coordinates of points that were located on the graph of the linear function. The points were used to draw the graph on a Cartesian plane.
The lesson then extended into the world of technology. The graphing calculator was used to create a table of values as well as to create the graph of the function. The more you practice the keystrokes for performing these tasks on the calculator, the more efficient you will become.

Mr. Red is trying to estimate the cost of renting a car to go on vacation. He has contacted a rental agency and has obtained the following information. The agency charges a daily rate of $78.00 for the vehicle plus 45 cents per mile. If Mr. Red has $350 set aside for travel, create a table of values that will give him approximate distances that he can travel with this rental car.
