y = -x + [?]

Answer 1

y = -x + 20

Explanation:

From the table:

X 4 5 6 7 8

Y 16 15 14 13 12

We can see that as X increases by 1, Y decreases by 1. So, the correct equation relating X and Y is:

y = -x + [?]

Now, let's fill in the missing value represented by "[?]":

For x = 4:

y = -(4) + ?

y = -4 + ?

Since Y is 16 when X is 4, we can calculate the missing value:

16 = -4 + ?

16 + 4 = ?

? = 20

Therefore, the correct equation relating X and Y is: y = -x + 20
