The correct answer is A. y = 2x +1
Explanation:
An equation is a statement that shows equality. In this context, the equation should lead to two equal numbers even if the values of y and x change. In this context, the correct equation is y= 2X + 1 because this is the only one, in which, the value of Y is always equivalent to 2x + 1. To prove this, let's replace y and x for the values of the table.
First column
5 = 2 · 2 + 1
5 = 4 + 1
5 = 5
Second Column
9 = 2 · 4 + 1
9 = 8 + 1
9 = 9
Third column
13 = 6 · 2 + 1
13 = 12 + 1
13 = 13
Fourth column
17 = 8 · 2 + 1
17 = 16 + 1
17 = 17
