We can figure this out by simply testing out the answers. For example y= 5x is a possible answer. And we know that in the data table there are x values. So just replace the x value and solve to see if it equals the y value in the table as shown:

(I’m going to be using the first x value in the data table but any value will work.)

Y = 5x: Y= 5*5 which is 25 ❌And in the data table $5 is supposed to equal the y value of 0.41 so keep trying the other equations

Y = 10.82x: Y= 10.82*5 which is 54.1 ❌
Y = 0.41x: Y= 0.41*5 which is 2.05 ❌
Y = 0.082x: Y = 0.082*5 = 0.41 ✅

Now finally, check your answer by using another value in the data table and substituting it in the answer you believe is correct

Y = 0.082x = 0.082*10 which is 0.82.

This answer seems to hold true so I believe it is D: Y = 0.082x

I apologize if this is wrong and if you have any questions please ask me.
