A! Because 9 is greater than 2 and 9 is greater than 7
The first table, representing <em>f</em>(<em>x</em>), is linear. The data have a constant rate of change or slope:
<em />(between the first two points): <em>m</em> = (<em>y</em>₂ - <em /><em>y</em>₁)/(<em>x</em>₂ - <em>x</em>₁) = (22-18)/(-1--2) = 4/(-1+2) = 4/1 = 4. The rate of change between any two points is the same:
(between the last two points):<em> m</em> = (34-30)/(2-1) = 4/1 = 4.
The second table, representing <em>g</em>(<em>x</em>), is exponential. The data points are multiplied by the same constant between successive points. 2*2 = 4; 4*2= 8; 8*2 = 16, etc.

$68 - 59.9 = $8.1
$8.1/$68 = 0.11911764705
0.11911764705 x100 = 11.911764705
11.911764705 is rounded up to 12

Answer:
f(x + 1) = 3x² + 5x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
To find f(x + 1), substitute x = x + 1 into f(x), that is
f(x + 1) = 3(x + 1)² - (x + 1) + 5 ← expand (x + 1)² using FOIL
= 3(x² + 2x + 1) - x - 1 + 5 ← distribute parenthesis by 3
= 3x² + 6x + 3 - x - 1 + 5 ← collect like terms
= 3x² + 5x + 7
