First differences are ... 0-7 = -7, -1-0 = -1, 4-(-1) = 5, 15-4 = 11, 32-15 = 17.
Second differences are -1-(-7) = 6, 5-(-1) = 6, 11-5 = 6, 17-11 = 6.
The second differences are constant at 6, so the table values would be best fit by a function that is ...
_____
The degree of the polynomial function corresponds to the level of differences that are constant (when the x-values are evenly spaced).
The quadratic function that matches these values is
... y = 3x² +2x -1
... y = (3x-1)(x+1) . . . . in factored form
Answer:
x / -9 = -16
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
[-3, 3]
Step-by-step explanation:
The function/ graph is defined from -3 to 3, inclusive of those values
9514 1404 393
Answer:
x = -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The zeros of the function are the values of x that make the factors zero:
x = -4, x = 1
The axis of symmetry is the vertical line halfway between these zeros.
x = (-4 +1)/2 = -3/2
The equation of the axis of symmetry is x = -3/2.
