Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y ∝ x^2

Introducing the proportionality constant, we have  

y = kx^2

Given : y= 18 when x = 3

substitute the given values in order to get the constant

i.e 18 = k x 3^2

     18 = 9k

      k = 2

therefore the formula connecting  x and y

⇒ y = 2x^2

To find y if x is 4, just substitute x = 4 into the formula connecting x and y

i.e y = 2 x 4^2

       = 2 x 16

       = 32

Ivan

Answer:

Negative

Step-by-step explanation:

From the scatter plot displayed, we could clearly observe the direction of the trend line as it produces a negative slope. For high values of y, the values of x are low and similarly, high values of x have low y values. Therefore, this kind of relationship between the two variables is considered negative.

If there are 5 terms in a quadratic sequence
exis [7]

Answer:

7.2

Step-by-step explanation:

First differences:

0.8-0.2, 1.8-0.8, 3.2-1.8, 5.0-3.2

0.6, 1.0, 1.4, 1.8

Second differences:

1.0-0.6, 1.4-1.0, 1.8-1.4

0.4, 0.4, 0.4

For the next term, add 0.4 to the last term from the first differences, and add the sum to the last term of the quadratic sequence:

0.4+1.8=2.2

2.2+5.0=7.2

∴ The next term in the sequence is 7.2
