Answer: Choice B

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the jump from y = 9 to y = 10 is +1

But the jump from y = 10 to y = 12 is +2

This is sufficient info to say that the rate of change is not constant. The change in y must be the same.

If you were to plot these points on the same xy grid, then you could see that it's impossible to draw a straight line through all four points.

See below.
