Answer
Let you represent y and let your friend represent x
Equation: y=x+3
Table:
X | Y
(0 , 3)
(1 , 4)
(2 , 5)
(3 , 6)
(4 , 7)
Work Step by Step
We can model the relationship through the equation y=x+3 because since you are 3 ahead of your friend and you and your friend go one place forward each time, the slope becomes 1 and the y-intercept become (0,3), thus forming the equation.
The table can be formed by plugging in any value for x and then solving for y. For example:
(Plugging in 3 for x)
y=x+3
y=(3)+3
y=6
This forms the ordered pair (3,6).
