1. **State the problem:** We have a table of x and y values: | x | y | |---|---| | 0 | 7 | | 1 | 8 | | 2 | 9 | | 3 | 10 | We want to determine the maximum x-value to label on the x-axis for graphing. 2. **Identify the maximum x-value:** From the table, the x-values are 0, 1, 2, and 3. 3. **Choose the maximum x-value:** The largest x-value is $3$. 4. **Explain the scale:** Since the x-values increase by 1 each step, the scale on the x-axis should increase by 1. 5. **Summary:** The x-axis should be labeled from 0 up to 3, with increments of 1. This completes the determination of the maximum x-value and scale for the x-axis.
