How do you know if a table is quadratic?

the SECOND differences are the same

What is the difference in y over the difference in x called?

rate of change/slope

200

What is the Function?


f(x) = -1.5x

200

What is the Function?


f(x) = x2 - x - 6

The data collected shows how many calories are burned depending on how long a person exercises. Adam think the function rule should be f(x) = 6.3x + 21. Matt thinks the function rule should be f(x) = 6.3x + 14.  Who has the better function?

To determine who has the closest function, find the percent of error for each function if a 30 minute exercise actually burns 206 calories.

Matt's

James measured the length of a board but had a ±4.1% error. If his experimental length of the board is 66.3 inches, what are the two possible values for actual measurements?

63.7 inches or 69.1 inches

What is the domain and range in interval form?


Domain: (-3, 1]

Range: [-4, 0)
