Linear interpolation formula

y = y₁ + (x − x₁) × (y₂ − y₁) ÷ (x₂ − x₁)

It assumes a straight line between the two known points. Engineers use it to read between rows of steam tables, tax tables and charts. Example: (10, 100) and (20, 200), x = 14 → y = 140.

Frequently asked questions

What is extrapolation?

Using the same line to estimate outside the known range. It can be inaccurate if the relationship isn’t linear.
