The graph y=kx is given by the table. find the coefficient k and fill in the table:

k = 2

Table from left to right:

-10

-1

0

4

8

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

One point is (2, 4). Points are written (x, y).

Substitute x=2 and y=4 into y = kx to find k

y = kx

4 = 2k

4/2 = k

k = 2

Substitute k=2 and each of the x or y in the table to find the missing value.

When x = -5

y = 2x

y = 2(-5)

y = -10

When x = -1/2

y = 2x

y = 2(-1/2)

y = -1

When x = 0

y = 2x

y = 2(0)

y = 0

When x = 2

y = 2x

y = 2(2)

y = 4

When y = 16

y = 2x

16 = 2x

16/2 = x

x = 8

When y = 1/4

y = 2x

1/4 = 2x

(1/4)/2 = x

x = 1/8

answer: 1) twenty-seven times y

              2) twenty-seven multiplied by y
