You have a linear relationship netween input and output. Note that every increase of 3 in the input increases the output by 1. 4.5 is 1.5 above 3, so you will 0.5 above -1, or -0.5.

If you were to use algebra, it would be

y = x/3 -2

x is the input and y is the output
find the out put 0 to 25 2 to 55 4 to 85
