1. The problem is to create a table of values for the linear function $$y=\frac{1}{2}x+2$$.
2. The formula is $$y=\frac{1}{2}x+2$$, which means for each value of $x$, multiply by $\frac{1}{2}$ and then add 2 to get $y$.
3. Choose some values for $x$ to calculate corresponding $y$ values. Common choices are $x=-2, 0, 2, 4$.
4. Calculate $y$ for each $x$:
- For $x=-2$: $$y=\frac{1}{2}(-2)+2=\cancel{\frac{-2}{2}}+2=-1+2=1$$
- For $x=0$: $$y=\frac{1}{2}(0)+2=0+2=2$$
- For $x=2$: $$y=\frac{1}{2}(2)+2=\cancel{\frac{2}{2}}+2=1+2=3$$
- For $x=4$: $$y=\frac{1}{2}(4)+2=\cancel{\frac{4}{2}}+2=2+2=4$$
5. The table of values is:
| $x$ | $y$ |
|-----|-----|
| -2 | 1 |
| 0 | 2 |
| 2 | 3 |
| 4 | 4 |
This table helps visualize the function by showing points on the line.
