Step-by-step explanation:
The third table shows a relationship of y=2x.
_____
Essentially, you have to see whether the value of y/x is constant for all the values in a table. If it is not, then the relation is not proportional.
in the first table, -4/-2 ≠ -3/-1
in the second table, -4/-2 ≠ 3/1
in the fourth table, -4/-2 ≠ 6/2
The formula we need is this one: 
. Filling in accordingly, we have x+4(x+4+1)=x+1(x+1+11). Simplifying that we get (x+4)(x+5)=(x+1)(x+12). We will FOIL both sides to get 
. Combining like terms gives us this simplification: 0=4x-8. If we factor out the common 4, we have 0 = 4(x-2). By the Zero Product Property, eitheer 4=0 or x-2=0. Well obviously, 4 does not equal zero, so x-2 = 0, and x = 2.
