{(4, 10), (6, 12), (12, 18)} (option C)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation represented by the plot:

y = x + 6

For a set of orderd pair to be plotted on the grid: when we insert the value of x, the value of y must correspond to the value of y coordinate of the ordered pair.

Picking just one ordered pair in each option to check:

a) x = 3, y = 21

y = 3 + 6

y = 9

The y coordinate and the value of y we got from calculation are not the same

b) x = 3, y = 10

y = 3 + 6

y = 9

The y coordinate and the value of y we got from calculation are not the same

c) x= 4, y = 10

y = 4 + 6 = 10

x = 6, y = 12

y = 6 + 6 = 12

x = 12, y = 18

y = 12 + 6 = 18

The y coordinate and the value of y we got from calculation are the same

d) x = 7, y = 10

y = 7 + 6

y = 13

The y coordinate and the value of y we got from calculation are not the same

Hence, the set of ordered pairs that could also be plotted on the grid using y = x + 6 is {(4, 10), (6, 12), (12, 18)} (option C)
