x
An equation that models the data is y = 1 • 2
or y = 2
.
47.
SOLUTION:
Calculate the first differences.
Calculate the second differences.
Since the second differences are equal, a quadratic function models the data.
2
Write an equation for the function that models the data. The equation has the form y = ax
. Use the ordered pair (1,
–1) to find the value of a.
2
An equation that models the data is y = –x
.
Graph each function. State the domain and range.
