The procedure you may apply is the interpolation (for x=2.4) and extrapolation (for x = 5.6) considering the linear variation between x = 2 and x =3 and outside of 4 also. But may be the variation is non-linear but some other function say y = x^2. So, to get such an information that what type of relation between x and y ...
