Just start plugging in numbers for x and y and you will get a line
For this case we have the following equation:
By completing squares we have:
Step 1:
Add 
on both sides:
Step 2:
We rewrite the equation:
Step 3:
We solve the equation:
Solutions:
Answer:
the next line would be:
Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
A rational number is in the form p/q where p and q are both integers and the denominator q is not equal to zero. This means that the set of all real numbers are rational numbers.
Since q can be any integer apart from zero, it means that all integers are rational numbers i.e for q = 1.
Hence 2 which can be written as fraction as 2/1 is a rational number since the denominator (q = 1) is a non zero number
Problem 3
This is not an exponential function. If you were to graph this out, you would see a parabola forming. Or at the very least, a parabolic-like curve forms. An exponential curve only increases or only decreases for the entire domain. However, in this case, we have an increasing portion, and then it decreases.

Problem 4
This is an exponential function. Each time x increases by 1, y is multiplied by 4. The equation that models these points is y = 4^x. Note how the function is strictly increasing and there are no decreasing portions mixed in.
