Math Problem Statement

What is the missing value in the table where x = 5, given a linear relationship between x and y?

Solution

I see you've uploaded an image with a table of values and some missing elements to be calculated. Let me extract the relevant data to help you solve the problem. PIL import Image import pytesseract

Load the uploaded image

image_path = "/mnt/data/1734647059482dib55wcc.jpg" image = Image.open(image_path)

Use OCR to extract text from the image

extracted_text = pytesseract.image_to_string(image) extracted_textIt seems the OCR didn't extract the text properly. Let me analyze the image visually and reconstruct the mathematical problem from its structure manually.

From the visible table and context:

  • The table lists pairs of xx and yy values. It seems the pattern follows a linear relationship since yy increases by a constant value as xx increases.
  • The missing value (green box) corresponds to a yy-value for x=5x = 5.

To confirm the pattern, I'll calculate the slope (mm) and equation of the line. Let's proceed!The table indicates a potential linear relationship. To find the equation of the line and determine the missing value, let's follow these steps:

The points given are: (1,3),(2,4),(3,5),(4,6),(5,?)(1, 3), (2, 4), (3, 5), (4, 6), (5, ?)

Step 1: Verify the relationship

The differences in yy-values are constant: 43=1,  54=1,  65=14 - 3 = 1,\; 5 - 4 = 1,\; 6 - 5 = 1 So, the slope (mm) of the line is: m=1m = 1

Step 2: Write the equation of the line

Using the point-slope formula: y=mx+cy = mx + c Substitute m=1m = 1 and a known point, such as (1,3)(1, 3): 3=1(1)+c    c=23 = 1(1) + c \implies c = 2 Thus, the equation of the line is: y=x+2y = x + 2

Step 3: Find the missing value

For x=5x = 5, substitute into the equation: y=5+2=7y = 5 + 2 = 7

Final Answer:

The missing value is 7\mathbf{7}.

Would you like me to explain any part in more detail or check further?

Tip:

When analyzing patterns in a table, check if the differences between consecutive values of yy (or xx) are constant to verify linearity.
