Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-values are evenly-spaced, so any linear function table will have constant differences between the y-values. Here are the y-differences for the different options:
A 1, 2, 4
B 1, -1, 3
C -1, -2, 1
D 5, 5, 5 . . . . this represents a linear function
We have one of those equations already solved for y, so let's sub that one into the other one and solve the equation in terms of x only: 
. We will simplify that and at the same time bring the 6 over by subtraction to get a polynomial set to equal 0 that we can factor. 
. We will factor that to get (x-3)(x+1) for x values of x = 3 and x = -1. a above is the choice that has the x values we need, -1 and 3.
