<span>Using processing software (Excel) or even a decent scientific calculator. You input the values and generate the best fit cubic equation.
For number 1, the equation is
y = 8x10</span>⁻⁵ x³ - 0.0097 x² + 0.374 x + 1.083
where x is the number of years since 1900
y is the pounds cheese consumed
For number 2, the equation is
y = -3x10⁻⁵ x³ + 0.0028 x² + 0.2155 x + 1.7736
For number 3
P(-1) = 18
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
for number 8 it is the multiplictivie inverse because you just do 8/9 x 2 so it would be correct and for number 9 it is not the multiplicative inverse because it is not reversing it also can i pls get brainliest

Answer:
Because BC=AD=8, segment BC ≅ Segment AD. Because these are horizontal line segments, their slopes are 0 and they are parallel.
Segment BC and AD are opposite sides that are both congruent and parallel. So ABCD is a parallelogram by the opposite sides congruent theorem.
Step-by-step explanation: 
So if you count the boxes of segment BC you will get 8, same for if you count the boxes that make up segment AD. If they are the same distance they are congruent. You can see how BC and AD are both horizontal lines. To find the slope you need to do the slope formula for BC and AD, which is y2-y1/x2-x1 in our case BC= 4-4/12-4 which equals 0/8. If you do the same formula for AD, you will get 0/8 making them congruent and the slope 0. If the opposite sides are congruent and parallel it has to be a parallelogram by the opposites and congruent theorem.
