Answer: y = 2x^4
The graph represents a parabolic-looking shape so it's either a quadratic or some even degree polynomial. This rules out y = -2x^3 and y = 2x^3 as they are cubics with odd degrees
The degree of a polynomial is the largest exponent. It determines the end behavior. In this case, both ends are rising upward together. Because they are rising up in the positive y direction, this means that we cannot have y = -2x^4 as the answer. For example, if x = 2 then y = -2*x^4 = -2*2^4 = -32, but the point (x,y) = (2,-32) isn't on the blue curve. So we can rule y = -2x^4 out.
The fact that y = 2x^4 has a positive leading coefficient tells us that the endpoints point upward.

Step-by-step explanation:
The function that tells you the number of dollars you spend on a given number of pounds creates graphs with the coordinates (pounds, dollars).
If you want 1 pound to correspond to G dollars, then a point on the graph will be ...
(1, G)
Answer:
The volume of the prism is 22m
Answer:
I believe it is: B= 16.45
A Yes as the x values are all different
B f(x) = 5x + 14
when x = 2 , f(x) = 5(2) + 14 = 24
x = 5, f(x) = 39,
Each value of f(x) is greater than corresponding ones in the function in A.
when x = 9 f(x) = 59 which is greater than for first function ( =12)
First function is a decreasing while f(x) is increasing
C f(x) = 64 = 5x + 14
5x = 64 - 14 = 50
x = 10
