Answer
Let Bob represent y and let Bob's dog represent x
Equation: y=x+9
Table:
X | Y
(0 , 9)
(1 , 10)
(2 , 11)
(3 , 12)
(4 , 13)
Work Step by Step
We can model the relationship through the equation y=x+9 because since Bob is 9 years older than his dog and they both grow 1 year old each year, the slope becomes 1 and the y-intercept become (0,9), 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+9
y=(3)+9
y=12
This forms the ordered pair (3,12).
