Question 1014665: Explain the relationship between x and y in the table
X 1 3/2 9/4 15/4
Y 3/4 5/4 2 7/2
Answer by Theo(13342)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! looks like y = x - 1/4
when x = 1, y = 3/4
1 = 4/4
3/5 = 4/4 - 1/4
convert this to decimal form, then when x = 1, y = .75
when x = 3/2, y = 5/4
3/2 = 6/4
5/4 = 6/4 - 1/4
convert this to decimal form, then when x = 1.5, y = 1.25
when x = 9/4, y = 2
2 = 8/4
8/4 = 9/4 - 1/4
convert this to decimal form, then when x = 2.25, y = 2
when x = 15/4, y = 7/2
7/2 = 14/4
14/4 = 15/4 - 1/4
convert this to decimal form, then when x = 3.75, y = 3.5
you can graph the equation of y = x - 1/4 as shown below:
