A table of values is a chart that helps to organize and visualize information. It is frequently used to show the relation between two variables.
x | y |
---|---|
0 | 0 |
1 | 3 |
2 | 6 |
3 | 9 |
4 | 12 |
5 | 15 |
In the table above, each x- and y-values appearing in the same row comprise an ordered pair. For example, the x-value 2
corresponds to the y-value 6
. This is usually represented with the notation (2,6).
