Answer:

The prediction should be 5 via interpolation.

Explanation:

Based on the values you have, the linear equation is f(x)=x-1. So replace x with the number you're looking for (6).

In a general sense, to extrapolate is to infer something that is not explicitly stated from existing information. Interpolation is an estimation of a value within two known values in a sequence of values.
