Type an equation for the following pattern x: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 y: 1 | 4 | 9 | 16 | 25

y = x²

Explanation:

x    |    y

1     |    1    

2    |    4    

3    |    9

4    |    16

5    |    25

The x-coordinates increase by 1 unit.  Now, look at the intervals of the y-coordinates:

1 to 4 = 3

4 to 9 = 5

9 to 16 = 7

16 to 25 = 9

Their intervals are not equal so it is not a linear equation (y = x). So, go one more generation and compare the intervals above:

3 to 5 = 2

5 to 7 = 2

7 to 9 = 2

Their intervals are equal so it is a quadratic equation (y = x²).

Note: First generation is a linear equation.

         Second generation is a quadratic equation.

3 1/3 x 2 3/5 = 8 2/3

step-by-step explanation:

just multiply the first number by the second number to get your answer.
