Question 165551: Please help! Thanks

3. Take a look at the table below and write out an equation for f(x).
x -2 -1 0 1 2
f(x) -1 1 3 5 7

Answer by scott8148(6628)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x is increasing by 1, while f(x) is increasing by 2

so f(x)=2x plus some "fudge factor" that makes the numbers right

-1=2(-2)+k __ -1=-4+k __ 3=k

f(x)=2x+3
