Math Problem Statement
Linear, quadratic or exponential
Solution
Let's analyze the data provided in the table to determine whether the relationship between and is linear, quadratic, or exponential.
Data:
x & y \\ \hline -1 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 \\ 1 & 1 \\ 2 & 4 \\ \end{array}$$ #### 1. Linear Relationship A linear relationship has the form $$y = mx + b$$, where $$m$$ is the slope and $$b$$ is the y-intercept. For a linear function, the change in $$y$$ for a unit change in $$x$$ should be constant. Let's check the differences between consecutive $$y$$ values: - From \(y(0) - y(-1) = 0 - 1 = -1\Ask a new question for Free
