to fill in the missing values in the table below.

x y
32 14

0
4
-3

Answer 1

I don't quite follow the formatting of the table you gave — could you confirm which x-values need y filled in? (It looked like the x column might be 3, 2, 1, 0, 4, −3.)

Using y − 6 = x^4 → y = x^4 + 6, here are the y-values for x = 3, 2, 1, 0, 4, −3:

- x = 3 → y = 3^4 + 6 = 81 + 6 = 87
- x = 2 → y = 2^4 + 6 = 16 + 6 = 22
- x = 1 → y = 1^4 + 6 = 1 + 6 = 7
- x = 0 → y = 0^4 + 6 = 0 + 6 = 6
- x = 4 → y = 4^4 + 6 = 256 + 6 = 262
- x = −3 → y = (−3)^4 + 6 = 81 + 6 = 87

If your x-values were different, paste the table again and I’ll fill it in exactly.
