To complete the table for the function \( y = 3 \cdot 2^x \), let's calculate the values of \( y \) for different values of \( x \).
We'll use the values for \( x \): -1, 0, 1, 2, and 3.
-
For \( x = -1 \): \[ y = 3 \cdot 2^{-1} = 3 \cdot \frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{2} = 1.5 \]
-
For \( x = 0 \): \[ y = 3 \cdot 2^0 = 3 \cdot 1 = 3 \]
-
For \( x = 1 \): \[ y = 3 \cdot 2^1 = 3 \cdot 2 = 6 \]
-
For \( x = 2 \): \[ y = 3 \cdot 2^2 = 3 \cdot 4 = 12 \]
-
For \( x = 3 \): \[ y = 3 \cdot 2^3 = 3 \cdot 8 = 24 \]
Now, let's complete the table:
| \( x \) | \( y \) | |-----------|-----------| | -1 | 1.5 | | 0 | 3 | | 1 | 6 | | 2 | 12 | | 3 | 24 |
This table displays the corresponding \( y \) values for each \( x \).
