First, simplify the expression of the function highlighting the perfect square:
Then find the vertwx of parabola. When x=2, f(2)=2 and the coordinates of the vertex are (2,2). The axis of symmetry passes through the vertex and is parallel to the y-axis. Therefore, its equation is x=2 (see attached graph for details).
Answer: x=2.
Complete the table of values for the function f(x) = (1/3)x for a, b, and c. x : -2, -1, 0, 1, 2. f(x) : a, b, c, 1/3, 1/9

Given:
The function is
To find:
The missing values for a, b, and c in the given table.
Solution:
We have,
At x=-2,
At x=-1,
At x=0,
Therefore, the missing values of a,b and c are 9, 3, and 1 respectively.
Is it a multiple choice question? I mean, 10/80?..
18/90
Divide by the common factor of 18 and 90, 9.
(18/9) / (90/9)
2/10
Divide top and bottom by 2
1/5
Hope this helps :)
