Which statements describe the relationships between x and y in these two equations?

y = 7x
y = x + 7

Select TWO correct answers.

When x is a negative number, both values of y will be negative.
The value of y in y = 7x is 7 times the value of x, and the value of y in y = x + 7 is 7 more than the value of x.
The value of y in both y = 7x and y = x + 7 is 7 times the value of x.
The value of y in y = 7x is 7 more than the value of x, and the value of y in y = x + 7 is 7 times x.
When x is a positive number, both values of y will be positive.

Correct answers:
- The value of y in y = 7x is 7 times the value of x, and the value of y in y = x + 7 is 7 more than the value of x.
- When x is a positive number, both values of y will be positive.

Brief justification: y=7x multiplies x by 7; y=x+7 adds 7 to x. If x>0, 7x>0 and x+7>0.
