We want to determine the equation that the given values will fit into.

We would do this by substituting the values of x into the equations and see if the value of y that we will get would correspond to the value of y on the table

For the first equation,

y = x^2 + 1

When x = - 1, y = -1^2 + 1 = 2

When x = 2, y = 2^2 + 1 = 5

When x = 8, y = 8^2 + 1 = 65

We can see that the value of y corresponds

If we substitute the values of x and y into the other equations, we won't get the corresponding values of y in the table

Therefore, the correct answer is the first option
