37 - 1.50
35.5 - 1.50
34 - 1.50
32.5 - 1.50

Answer:

  f(x) = 3x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-values change by 1 from the first line to the second.

The y-values change by -13-(-16) = 3 from the first line to the second.

Then the "rate of change" is ∆y/∆x = 3/1 = 3. This will be the coefficient of x in the equation. The last choice is appropriate:

  f(x) = 3x + 5
