    <div class=answer> Consider the table of a set of input values <i>x</i> and the corresponding outputs <i>y</i> that satisfy a function, <table style=border-collapse:collapse; border=1>     <tbody>      <tr>       <td> <i>x</i> </td>       <td> 1 </td>       <td> 7 </td>       <td> 13 </td>       <td> 19 </td>      </tr>      <tr>       <td> <i>y</i> </td>       <td>   </td>       <td> 8.5 </td>       <td> 17.5 </td>       <td> 26.5 </td>      </tr>     </tbody>    </table> (a) Since, the rate of growth is constant, so the points fit on a line and a linear function can be used to find the model for the data.
