Graphing Equations Using the T-Table Method

The video tutorial demonstrates how to graph an equation using the T table method. It begins by explaining the selection of X values near the origin and then shows how to substitute these values into the equation to solve for Y. The tutorial covers calculations for X values of -1, 0, and 1, resulting in ordered pairs. Finally, it illustrates how to plot these pairs on a graph and connect them to form a line.

What is the purpose of using a T-table in graphing equations?

• To find the slope of the line

• To calculate the area under the curve

• To organize X and Y values for graphing

• To determine the intercepts of the graph

Which X values are suggested to be picked near the origin?

• 0, 1, 2

• 1, 2, 3

• -1, 0, 1

• -3, -2, -1

What is the Y value when X is substituted with -1 in the equation?

• 4

• -2

• 2

• 0

What operation is performed after substituting X = 0 in the equation?

• Division

• Subtraction

• Addition

• Multiplication

What is the Y value when X is substituted with 1 in the equation?

• 2

• 0

• 4

• -2

What are the ordered pairs created from the T-table?

• (0, 4), (1, 2), (-1, 0)

• (1, 4), (0, 2), (-1, 0)

• (-1, 4), (0, 2), (1, 0)

• (-1, 2), (0, 4), (1, 0)

What is the next step after plotting the ordered pairs on the graph?

• Draw a line connecting the points

• Erase the T-table

• Calculate the slope

• Find the intercepts

What method is used to graph the line in the video?

• Point-slope method

• Intercept method

• Slope-intercept method

• T-table method
