To find the equation that represents the additive rule in the table, we can examine the relationship between the values of \(x\) and \(y\).

From the given points in the table:

  • When \(x = 25\), \(y = 38\)
  • When \(x = 27\), \(y = 40\)
  • When \(x = 29\), \(y = 42\)

We can observe that \(y\) is consistently 13 greater than \(x\):

  • \(38 = 25 + 13\)
  • \(40 = 27 + 13\)
  • \(42 = 29 + 13\)

Thus, we can express this relationship in the form of an equation:

\[ y = x + 13 \]

Therefore, the correct response is:

y = x + 13.
