10-1 Tables and Functions
A function is a rule that relates two
quantities so that each input value
corresponds exactly to one output value.

Additional Example 1: Writing Equations from
Function Tables
Write an equation for a function that gives the
values in the table. Use the equation to find
the value of y for the indicated value of x.

pattern.
Use the pattern to write an
y = 3x + 4
equation.
y = 3(10) + 4
y = 30 + 4 = 34
Substitute 10 for x.
Use your function rule to find
y when x = 10.

Helpful Hint
When all the y-values are greater than the
corresponding x-values, use addition and/or
multiplication in your equation.

y is 2 times x + 4.
y = 2x + 4
y = 2(10) + 4

Additional Example 2: Translating Words into
Math
Write an equation for the function. Tell what
each variable you use represents.
The height of a painting is 7 times its width.
h = height of painting
Choose variables for the
equation.
w = width of painting
h = 7w
Write an equation.

each variable you use represents.
The height of a mirror is 4 times its width.
h = height of mirror
Choose variables for the
equation.
w = width of mirror
h = 4w
Write an equation.

Additional Example 3: Problem
Solving Application
The school choir tracked the number of
tickets sold and the total amount of money
received. They sold each ticket for the
same price. They received $80 for 20
tickets, $88 for 22 tickets, and $108 for 27
tickets. Write an equation for the function.

Understand the Problem
The answer will be an equation that describes
the relationship between the number of tickets
sold and the money received.

Let t be the number of tickets. Let m be the
amount of money received.

Look Back
Substitute the t and m values in the table to
check that they are solutions of the equation
m = 4t.
m = 4t (20, 80) m = 4t (22, 88) m = 4t (27, 108)
