1) We can determine by the table of values whether a function is a quadratic one by considering this example:
x | y 1st difference 2nd difference
0 0 3 -0 = 3 7-3 = 4
1 3 10 -3 = 7 11 -7 = 4
2 10 21 -10 =11 15 -11 = 4
3 21 36-21 = 15 19-5 = 4
4 36 55-36= 19
5 55
2) Let's subtract the values of y this way:
3 -0 = 3
10 -3 = 7
21 -10 = 11
36 -21 = 15
55 -36 = 19
Now let's subtract the differences we've just found:
7 -3 = 4
11-7 = 4
15-11 = 4
19-15 = 4
So, if the "second difference" is constant (same result) then it means we have a quadratic function just by analyzing the table.
3) Hence, we can determine if this is a quadratic relation calculating the second difference of the y-values if the second difference yields the same value. The graph must be a parabola and the highest coefficient must be 2

Hope you could get an idea from here.
Doubt clarification - use comment section.
I believe that is it 100, since it is the only number listed that has factors and multiples.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
There are total 12 outfit combinations.
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of hat are: 2
1 red hat and 1 black hat
Number of shirt are: 3
1 white shirt , 1 black shirt , 1 black-and-white striped shirt.
Number of pants are: 2
1 black and 1 blue
Now, the total number of combinations could be seen with the help of a tree diagram.
We observe that total 12 combinations are possible.
Let x represent the days it will take for the stalk to be at least 300 cm tall
3x+9≥300
3x≥291
