What is the degree of the polynomial?

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The degree of this polynomial is 2, since a parabola is drawn. A parabola is a graph of a quadratic equation which has the highest degree of 2.

1.4

2.3

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the constant of variation is

y= kx

divide each side by x

y/x =kx/x

y/x =k

we know a and y

1.   y/x = k

4/1 =4

check the other values to make sure they are the same

8/2 = 4   12/3 =4   and 16/4 =4  

the constant of variation is 4

2.   y/x = k

3/1 =3

check the other values to make sure they are the same

6/2 = 3   9/3 =3   and 12/4 =3  

the constant of variation is 3

-2

7 - 9 = -2

reversed:

-2 + 9 = 7
