Determine the values of the missing entries in the table. Reduce all fractions to the lowest terms.

Given the equation: [tex]\(12x - 8y = 16\)[/tex]

The table represents ordered pairs. If multiple solutions exist, you only need to identify one.

[tex]\[
\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|l|l|}
\hline
$x$ & \(\square\) & 0 & 2 & \(\square\) \\
\hline
$y$ & 0 & \(\square\) & \(\square\) & \(\square\) \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\][/tex]

Certainly! Let's fill in the missing entries by solving the linear equation [tex]\(12x - 8y = 16\)[/tex] step-by-step.

### Fill in the Table:

1. First Missing Entry (when [tex]\(x\)[/tex] is missing and [tex]\(y = 0\)[/tex]):
Given:
[tex]\[ 12x - 8(0) = 16 \implies 12x = 16 \implies x = \frac{16}{12} = \frac{4}{3} \][/tex]
So, when [tex]\(y = 0\)[/tex], [tex]\(x = \frac{4}{3}\)[/tex].

2. Second Missing Entry (when [tex]\(x = 0\)[/tex]):
Given:
[tex]\[ 12(0) - 8y = 16 \implies -8y = 16 \implies y = \frac{16}{-8} = -2 \][/tex]
So, when [tex]\(x = 0\)[/tex], [tex]\(y = -2\)[/tex].

3. Third Missing Entry (when [tex]\(x = 2\)[/tex]):
Given:
[tex]\[ 12(2) - 8y = 16 \implies 24 - 8y = 16 \implies -8y = 16 - 24 \implies -8y = -8 \implies y = 1 \][/tex]
So, when [tex]\(x = 2\)[/tex], [tex]\(y = 1\)[/tex].

4. Fourth Missing Entry (when [tex]\(y\)[/tex] is missing and [tex]\(x = \frac{4}{3}\)[/tex]):
Checking the equation again:
[tex]\[ 12 \left(\frac{4}{3}\right) - 8y = 16 \implies 16 - 8y = 16 \implies -8y = 0 \implies y = 0 \][/tex]
So, when [tex]\(x = \frac{4}{3}\)[/tex], [tex]\(y = 0\)[/tex].

### Final Table with Entries Filled:
[tex]\[ \begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|l|l|} \hline x & \frac{4}{3} & 0 & 2 & \frac{4}{3} \\ \hline y & 0 & -2 & 1 & 0 \\ \hline \end{tabular} \][/tex]

Thus, the values of the missing entries in the table are:
[tex]\[ \begin{aligned} &\text{When } x \text{ is missing and } y = 0, x = \frac{4}{3}. \\ &\text{When } x = 0, y = -2. \\ &\text{When } x = 2, y = 1. \\ &\text{When } y \text{ is missing and } x = \frac{4}{3}, y = 0. \][/tex]

This is the completed table:

[tex]\[ \begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|l|l|} \hline x & \frac{4}{3} & 0 & 2 & \frac{4}{3} \\ \hline y & 0 & -2 & 1 & 0 \\ \hline \end{tabular} \][/tex]

No calculations are necessary beyond these steps!
