Question

How do you find the ordered pairs for y=8x?

Answer 1

You can find any number of ordered pairs by choosing an `x`-value and calculating a `y`-value

Explanation:

The equation `y = 8x` means that the value of `y` is `8` times bigger than the value of `x`.

To find ordered pairs (`x,y`), choose several `x` values and then multiply each by `8` to find the corresponding `y` values.

If `x` = 3, then `y=3xx8=24" "` which gives:`" "(3,24)`
If `x` = 5, then `y=5xx8=40" "` which gives:`" "(5,40)`
If `x` = -2 then `y=-2xx8=-16" "` which gives:`" "(-2,16)`
If `x` = 0, then `y=0xx8=0" "` which gives:`" "(0,0)`

etc.
