Exercise 1 Page 720

Analyze the table of values. Then, write the information as a function of x.

D

Practice makes perfect

We are given a table of values and we want to find a function that describes the data. To find one we will analyze the values.

x - 2 - 1 0 1
f(x) - 3 - 1 1 3

As we can see, f(x) is always the double of x plus 1. Let's see it in a table!

x Function f(x)
- 2 ( 2)(-2) + 1 - 3
- 1 ( 2)(-1) + 1 - 1
0 ( 2)(0) + 1 1
1 ( 2)(1) + 1 3

Now we will write this information as a function. f(x)= 2x + 1 Therefore, the correct option is D.
