Hi! Basically, the problem is asking us to find the values of a, b, and c in the equation f(x)=a x^{2} +bx+c. Since we have three unknowns, we just need three equations. We can find these equations by using the data in the table.

First let's plug x = 0 and f(x) = 0.
0=0+0+c
c=0

Now that we know c, it's time to pick two more pairs. Let's plug-in (2,78) and (4,152)

78=4a+2b
152=16a+4b

Before proceeding with the process of eliminating one variable, let us first reduce both equations to their lowest terms. We divide the first equation by 2 and we divide the second one by 4.

39=2a+b
38=4a+b

Next, we subtract equation 2 from equation 1.

1=-2a
a=-0.5

Finally, we substitute the value of a to equation 2 to get the value of b.

38=4(-0.5)+b
b=40

Therefore, the function should be f(x)=-0.5 x^{2} +40x

Marcia claims that the GCF for 2x^2, 4xy and 8xy^4 is 8x^2y^4. Is she correct? If not, what is the GCF?

The GCF is what they all have in common.
2x is the only thing they ALL share.
