The functions shows in the data table is an exponential function.
Answer: 
I suppose 17x^ means 17x².
and that we must solve the equation.
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
perpendicular means the opposite inverse of a slope. So -1/2 will become 2/1 or simply 2.
opposite means the sign will change, negative becomes positive and positive becomes negative.
inverse flip numerator and denominator.

Answer:
A) SQ is the geometric mean between the hypotenuse and the closest adjacent segment of the hypotenuse.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this geometry, all of the right triangles are similar. That means corresponding sides have the same ratio (are proportional).
Here, SQ is the hypotenuse of ΔSQT and the short side of ΔRQS.
Those two triangles are similar, so we can write ...
(short side)/(hypotenuse) = QT/SQ = QS/RQ
In the above proportion, we have used the vertices in the same order they appear in the similarity statement (ΔSQT ~ ΔRQS). Of course, the names can have the vertices reversed:
QT/SQ = SQ/QR . . . . . QS = SQ, RQ = QR
__
When this is rewritten to solve for SQ, we get ...
SQ² = QR·QT
SQ = √(QR·QT) . . . . SQ (short side) is the geometric mean of the hypotenuse and the short segment.
