1) Given the table, let's find out that missing data picking 2 points (2,-10) and (6,-4)
Since we have the slope, let's work on finding the linear coefficient
plugging point (2,-10) into that:
y= mx +b
-10 =3/2(2) +b
-10 =6/2 +b
-10= 3 +b
-10-3 =b
b= -13
2) So the rule of that function is y= 3/2x -13
Plugging x= 10 we have
y= 3/2(10) -13
y=2
3) So the missing y-coordinate is 2.
