The problem you shared shows an equation representing the cost of student tickets for a football game. The equation is given as $ y = 2x $, where $ x $ is the number of student tickets, and $ y $ is the total cost. Each ticket costs $2.

### Completing the Table
Based on this equation, you can calculate the total cost for different numbers of tickets by multiplying the number of tickets by 2:

- For 0 tickets: $ y = 2(0) = 0 $
- For 1 ticket: $ y = 2(1) = 2 $
- For 2 tickets: $ y = 2(2) = 4 $
- For 3 tickets: $ y = 2(3) = 6 $

So, the table of values would be:
\[
\begin{array}{|c|c|}
\hline
\text{x (Student Tickets)} & \text{y (Cost)} \\
\hline
0 & 0 \\
1 & 2 \\
2 & 4 \\
3 & 6 \\
\hline
\end{array}
\]

### Graphing the Points
To graph the points, you can plot the ordered pairs from the table:

- (0, 0)
- (1, 2)
- (2, 4)
- (3, 6)

These points form a straight line since the equation is linear, and the graph will have a slope of 2 (rising by 2 units on the y-axis for every 1 unit on the x-axis).

Would you like more details about the graph or other parts of this problem?

### Questions:
1. How would the graph change if each ticket cost $3 instead of $2?
2. Can you identify the slope and the y-intercept in the equation $ y = 2x $?
3. How would you calculate the total cost for 5 tickets using the same equation?
4. What kind of function is represented by the equation $ y = 2x $ (linear, quadratic, etc.)?
5. How does the total cost increase as the number of tickets increases?

### Tip:
When graphing, always check the slope (rate of change) to ensure you're plotting points correctly. The slope tells you how much $ y $ increases for each increase in $ x $.

Tickets to the football game are $2 each for students. The equation is given as y = 2x. Complete the table of values and plot the points on the graph.
