Given:

Consider the data table:

x      y

1      6

2     10

3      __

Data represent a linear  function.

To find:

The missing value.

Solution:

Let the missing value be p.

Slope Formula:

Data represent a linear  function. So, slope is always remains same.

Adding 10 on both sides, we get

Therefore, the missing value is 14 and option d is correct.

good luck on your studies! : )
