Answer 1

$m = m \\ \frac{97 - 68}{2 - 1} = \frac{134 - 97}{3 - 2} \\ 29 = 37 \\ this \: function \: is \: non \: linear$

Since the only two other options are quadratic and given that it must satisfy one of them i will assume the following general form of the function.

$f(1) = 68 \: \: \: f(2) = 97 \: \: \: \: f(3) = 134 \\ f(x) = ax {}^{2} + bx + c$

Substitute in the first function any point.

$f(1) = 68 \\ 7.8(1) {}^{2} - 2.9(1) + 67.1 = 68 \\ 7.8 - 2.9 + 67.1 = 68 \\ 72 = 68 \\ this \: is \: false$

I'm pretty sure something is wrong with the given
