Here are the rules for each of the number mappings:

Mapping 1:

  1. Identify the input (xx) and output (yy) values.

    The inputs are −3,−2,−1,0,1-3, -2, -1, 0, 1. The corresponding outputs are 14,9,4,−1,−614, 9, 4, -1, -6.

  2. Determine the pattern.

    Observe the change in yy for each unit increase in xx:
    9−14=−59 - 14 = -5
    4−9=−54 - 9 = -5
    −1−4=−5-1 - 4 = -5
    −6−(−1)=−5-6 - (-1) = -5
    The output decreases by 5 for every 1 unit increase in the input. This means the slope m=−5m = -5.

  3. Find the equation.

    Using the linear equation y=mx+cy = mx + c and a point, for example (0,−1)(0, -1):

    −1=−5(0)+c-1 = -5(0) + c −1=0+c-1 = 0 + c c=−1c = -1

    The rule for this mapping is y=−5x−1y = -5x - 1.

    Mapping 2:

  4. Identify the input (xx) and output (yy) values.

    The inputs are −10,−9,−8,−7,−6-10, -9, -8, -7, -6. The corresponding outputs are 16,14,12,10,816, 14, 12, 10, 8.

  5. Determine the pattern.

    Observe the change in yy for each unit increase in xx:
    14−16=−214 - 16 = -2
    12−14=−212 - 14 = -2
    10−12=−210 - 12 = -2
    8−10=−28 - 10 = -2
    The output decreases by 2 for every 1 unit increase in the input. This means the slope m=−2m = -2.

  6. Find the equation.

    Using the linear equation y=mx+cy = mx + c and a point, for example (−6,8)(-6, 8):

    8=−2(−6)+c8 = -2(-6) + c 8=12+c8 = 12 + c c=8−12c = 8 - 12 c=−4c = -4

    The rule for this mapping is y=−2x−4y = -2x - 4.

    Mapping 3:

  7. Identify the input (xx) and output (yy) values.

    The inputs are 1,2,3,4,51, 2, 3, 4, 5. The corresponding outputs are −6,−8,−10,−12,−14-6, -8, -10, -12, -14.

  8. Determine the pattern.

    Observe the change in yy for each unit increase in xx:
    −8−(−6)=−2-8 - (-6) = -2
    −10−(−8)=−2-10 - (-8) = -2
    −12−(−10)=−2-12 - (-10) = -2
    −14−(−12)=−2-14 - (-12) = -2
    The output decreases by 2 for every 1 unit increase in the input. This means the slope m=−2m = -2.

  9. Find the equation.

    Using the linear equation y=mx+cy = mx + c and a point, for example (1,−6)(1, -6):

    −6=−2(1)+c-6 = -2(1) + c −6=−2+c-6 = -2 + c c=−6+2c = -6 + 2 c=−4c = -4

    The rule for this mapping is y=−2x−4y = -2x - 4.

    Mapping 4:

  10. Identify the input (xx) and output (yy) values.

    The inputs are $1, 2, 3, 4, 5$. The corresponding outputs are $8, 15, 22, 29, 30$.

  11. Determine the pattern.

    Observe the change in yy for each unit increase in xx:
    15−8=715 - 8 = 7
    22−15=722 - 15 = 7
    29−22=729 - 22 = 7
    The output increases by 7 for every 1 unit increase in the input. This means the slope m=7m = 7.

  12. Find the equation.

    Using the linear equation y=mx+cy = mx + c and a point, for example (1,8)(1, 8):

    8=7(1)+c8 = 7(1) + c 8=7+c8 = 7 + c c=8−7c = 8 - 7 c=1c = 1

    The rule for this mapping is y=7x+1y = 7x + 1.

  13. Check the last value.

    Using the rule y=7x+1y = 7x + 1 for x=5x=5:

    y=7(5)+1y = 7(5) + 1 y=35+1y = 35 + 1 y=36y = 36

    The value written in the image for x=5x=5 is 30. Based on the established pattern, the value should be 36.

    The rules for the mappings are:

    • Mapping 1: y=−5x−1\boxed{y = -5x - 1}
    • Mapping 2: y=−2x−4\boxed{y = -2x - 4}
    • Mapping 3: y=−2x−4\boxed{y = -2x - 4}
    • Mapping 4: y=7x+1\boxed{y = 7x + 1} (with the last value 30 likely being a mistake, it should be 36)
