Answer 1

To find the missing value for \( y \) in the point \((-7, \_\_)\) on the line defined by the equation \( y = 2x - 3 \), you need to substitute \( x = -7 \) into the equation.

1. Substitute \( x = -7 \) into the equation:
\[
y = 2(-7) - 3
\]

2. Calculate:
\[
y = -14 - 3 = -17
\]

So, the missing value is \(-17\). The point is \((-7, -17)\).
