See below:

We can pick any values to create a table. For instance, we could construct a table like the following:

#x|y#

#1| |1+5|= 6#

#3| |3+5|= 8#

#5| |5+5|= 10#

#6| |6+5|= 11#

#7| |7+5|= 12#

Notice, I just picked arbitrary values for #x#. We could have picked a million, trillion, any real number we want.

Hope this helps!
