using (1,1) and (6,11), slope is 10/5 = 2
2(6) = 12, and 11 is 12-1, so y = 2x-1.
that makes missing number 2(10)-1 = 19.

Use the values to get an approximate slope,

m= (y-y)/(x-x)

then use the general form of an equation
y= mx + b
to write your prediction equation.

Use the equation and plug in the x-value to find the missing value.
