Alibaby:  If you insist on guessing, this subject is going to become harder for you instead of easier.  The answer to this problem is not D.  The answer to the previous problem is not D either.  Please think, and use the info shared with you, to select y our answers.

In the current problem, you need to look for trends.  As x increases in steps of 2, what happens to y?  Does y increase or decrease?  If so, which?  And by how much from one line to the next one down?
