When values of a quadratic function are listed in a table with x-values having a constant difference, the y-vlaues will have a constant (non-zero) second-difference.
Here, we can list first and second differences for the values in the given tables to identify the quadratic function.
Table 1.
- 1st differences: 3, 3, 3, 3
- 2nd differences: 0, 0, 0, 0 . . . . this is a linear function
Table 2.
- 1st differences: -6, -2, 2, 6
- 2nd differences: 4, 4, 4 . . . . this is a quadratic function
Table 3.
- 1st differences: 5, -8, -3, -3
- 2nd differences: -13, 5, 0 . . . . can be described by a 4th degree polynomial
Table 4.
- 1st differences: 3, 0, -3, -3
- 2nd differences: -3, -3, 0 . . . . can be described by a 4th degree polynomial
___
The appropriate choice is Table 2.

Step-by-step explanation:
In a standard deck of 52 cards, there are 2 red aces, 2 red Queens, and 13 spades. That leaves 35 cards for everything else.
For the game to be fair, the cost must equal the expected value. The expected value is the sum of each outcome times its probability.
C = (12) (13/52) + (20) (2/52) + (38) (2/52) + (0) (35/52)
C = 68/13
C ≈ 5.2308
