CPM Homework Help : MC1 Problem 9-109

Find at least six $\left(x, y\right)$ pairs for the rule $\frac { y } { x } = \frac { 7 } { 2 }$ and organize them into a table like the one below. Be sure to use positive and negative numbers.

x
y

Hint:

Can you find fractions that are equivalent to seven-halves? You can use the Giant One or any other method you like.

More Help:

It is also likely that multiples of $7$ and $2$ will produce an ordered pair following the rule $\frac{7}{2}$ .

Just be sure that if you pick one multiple, the other multiple corresponds.
For instance, $7$ times $5$ is $35$ , so to form an ordered pair we need to find the fifth multiple of $2$ .

Partial Answer:

x	$-2$	$1$	$4$
y	$-7$	$3.5$	$14$

Some possible pairs are listed in the table above.
Can you find more pairs to complete the table?
Remember to use negative numbers too!
