Wait, is this a trick question? Maybe they want me to use a different method, like flipping a coin or something.

I bet the answer is 11. Why? Because 11 is the middle number between 8 and 14, duh!

I believe the answer is Option B. It seems like the most logical choice based on linear interpolation.

I agree. We can find the equation of the line passing through (2, 8) and (5, 14) to find f(3).
