Question

The table below shows a relationship between x and y values. Which of the following equations describes this relationship?

Answer 1

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation: Substitute the x’s into C’s equation.

2(0) is 0, 0+1 is 1 so the first row is correct. 2(2) is 4, 4+1 is 5, so the second row is correct. 2(4) is 8, 8+1 is 9, so the third row is correct. And lastly, 2(6) is 12, 12+1 is 13 so fourth row is correct as well. Assuming the rest of the rows follow this pattern, the correct answer should be C.
