What would be a correct expression for this number puzzle?

The output from a coal power plant is shown in the table:

Similarly, the output from a solar power plant is shown in the table:

Based on the tables, is the energy output in proportion to the number of days for either plant? If so, write an equation showing the relationship. If not, explain your reasoning.
