Determine whether each table represents a linear quadratic or exponential function
Kryger [21]

Answer:

Table A: exponencial function

Table B: quadratic function

Table C: linear function

Step-by-step explanation:

Table A:

for x from 1 to 2, Y increased by 6

for x from 2 to 3, Y increased by 18

for x from 3 to 4, Y increased by 54

So we can see that the values of Y are being multiplied by 3 for each increment of x, so this table represents an exponencial function.

Table B:

for x from 1 to 2, Y increased by 6

for x from 2 to 3, Y increased by 10

for x from 3 to 4, Y increased by 14

The increment of Y is higher than a linear increment and smaller than an exponencial increment, so this is the quadratic function.

Table C:

for x from 3 to 6, Y increased by -2

for x from 6 to 9, Y increased by -2

for x from 9 to 12, Y increased by -2

The increment of Y is constant for the same increment of X, so this is a linear function.

−6x+14<−28 OR 9x+15≤−12
Serhud [2]

Answer:x>7 or x ≤ -3

Solving the 1st inequality

-6x +14 < -28 --------------- (Collect like terms)

-6x < -28 - 14

-6x < - 42 -------------------- (Divide both sides by -6)

Note: If you decide an inequality expression by a negative value, the inequality sign changes)

-6x/-6 > -42/-6

x > 7

Solving the 2nd inequality

9x + 15 ≤ −12 ----------- (Collect like terms)

9x ≤ −12 - 15

9x ≤ −27 ------------------(Divide both sides by 9)

9

9x/9 ≤ −27/9

x ≤ -3

Bring both results together, we get

x>7 or x ≤ -3

The final result is complex (i.e. can't be combined together).

There are some errors in your table. Column 1, for example, should be all odd numbers. Columns should alternate even/odd.

It can be useful to build a spreadsheet that fills these numbers.
