Determine which type of rule is represented in the table. What are the missing values?(1 point)

x
y
25 125
30
35
40 200

1 answer

To determine the type of rule represented in the table, let's first analyze the given pairs of values for x and y:

  • When x=25, y=125.
  • When x=40, y=200.

Let's look for a possible relationship between x and y. A common type of relationship is a linear or polynomial one. Let's explore whether there's a multiplication or division relationship between the values.

Calculating the ratio of y to x for the known values:

  1. For x=25: yx=12525=5

  2. For x=40: yx=20040=5

The ratio of y to x is the same (5) for both values. This suggests that there is a linear relationship given by the equation:

y=5x

Now, let's use this rule to find the missing values for y when x=30 and x=35:

  1. For x=30: y=5×30=150

  2. For x=35: y=5×35=175

So, the completed table with the missing values is:

Misplaced \hline

Missing values:

  • For x=30, y=150
  • For x=35, y=175

The rule indicated by the table is y=5x.
