Algebra & Reasoning
16. Look at the information.
x = 4 y = 13
Here is one way of changing x to get y:
To get y, you could: multiply x by 2 and add 5
This can be written as a rule: Rule: y = 2x + 5
Fill in the empty boxes to show two more ways of changing x to get y. In each case, fill in the rule
too.
To get y, multiply x by 3 and add
Rule: y =
To get y, multiply x by and subtract 3
Rule: y =
