The answer to your question is:
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
f(x) = -2x² + 8x - 2
Process
-2x² + 8x = y + 2
-2(x² - 4x + 4) = y + 2 - 8
-2(x - 2)² = y - 6
(x - 2)² = 1/2 (y - 6)
Vertex = (2, 6)
Axis of symmetry = x = 2
y-intercept
f(0) = -2(0)² + 8(0) - 2
f(0) = 0 + 0 - 2
f(0) = -2
Domain (-∞, ∞)
Range (-∞, 6]

The slope of the best fit for the 3 given points is 500, so the correct option is b.
<h3>How to find the slope?</h3>
Remember that for a line that passes through two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) the slope is:
With the 3 given points we can find 3 slopes, and then we will need to find the average of these 3.
The 3 points are: (3, 2,750), (6, 4,200), and (9,5,750)
Then the 3 slopes are:
The average slope is:
So the correct option is b.
