No that statement is not always true. There is only one solution to this equation.
For linear, the y-differences are equal. An example is the total cost of buying a single type of item.
Quadratic - the 2nd differences are equal,. Example: path of a kicked ball
Cubic - the 3rd differences are equal. Example: modeling the shapes of vases or curved designs
Exponential - the y-ratios are equal. Example: growth of bacteria
Answer: (8)(-4.5)
Step-by-step explanation: If you were to multiply -4.5 • -8 it would be a positive number but if you multiply (8)(-4.5) that would equal a negative number
The equation to this problem would be y = x/2 + 1
