n: 2, 4, 6
m: -6, -12, -16
Which function rule would help you find the values in the table.
m = -3n
m = n - 6
m = n -3
m = -6n
M = - 3n?
does that make a differnece?
forgot to change name ☺
m = - 3n?
does that make a differnece?
You can see that the three points do not lie on a straight line, so no linear function will do. There is a parabola which contains all three points
m = (n^2-18n+8)/4
but that's not an option
NONE
unless the -16 is really -18
But, m = -3n is the closest of the three.
At least it contains two of the pairs; the other choices miss the mark for all three of them.
whats the letter answer? please help
Well, I'd say -3n, except that -3(6) = -18, not -16.
Typo?
As you can see, none of the choices fits all three pairs.
