Math Problem Statement

6 table of values of g(x) =3x+5/8

Solution

To create a table of values for the function g(x)=3x+58g(x) = \frac{3x + 5}{8}, we choose several values of xx, plug them into the function, and then calculate g(x)g(x).

Let's use the following values for xx: -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, and 3.

g(x)=3x+58g(x) = \frac{3x + 5}{8}

Table of Values:

xxg(x)g(x)
-23(2)+58=6+58=18\frac{3(-2) + 5}{8} = \frac{-6 + 5}{8} = \frac{-1}{8}
-13(1)+58=3+58=28=14\frac{3(-1) + 5}{8} = \frac{-3 + 5}{8} = \frac{2}{8} = \frac{1}{4}
03(0)+58=58\frac{3(0) + 5}{8} = \frac{5}{8}
13(1)+58=3+58=1\frac{3(1) + 5}{8} = \frac{3 + 5}{8} = 1
23(2)+58=6+58=118\frac{3(2) + 5}{8} = \frac{6 + 5}{8} = \frac{11}{8}
33(3)+58=9+58=148=74\frac{3(3) + 5}{8} = \frac{9 + 5}{8} = \frac{14}{8} = \frac{7}{4}
