Explanation:

It can be convenient to use mental arithmetic methods* to fill in this table.

Since the relationship is proportional the y-value for x=4 will be half that for x=8, so will be 224/2 = 112. Similarly, the y-value for x=2 will be half that for x=4, so will be 112/2 = 56.

Then the y-value for x=6 will be the sum of the y-values for x=2 and x=4, so will be 112 +56 = 168.

If you actually care to find the "unit rate," you can divide the y-value for x=2 by 2 to get the corresponding y-value for x=1: 56/2 = 28. The unit rate is 28.

_____

* Multiplication or division by 2 is simply a matter of doubling or halving. In most cases, it is easy to double a number, or to compute half of it. (If it isn't, you need to review your arithmetic facts.)
