Imagine the function table is like a machine that changes numbers in a predictable way. You put in the number at the top (on the line marked x) and the number at the bottom is the answer to that function.
Here is an example of a function table where the function is
x + 1 = y. For each number in the x row, I added one to get the number in the y row.
