Question

The ordered pairs (1, 81), (2, 100), (3, 121), (4, 144), and (5, 169) represent a function. What is a rule that represents this function? (1 point)y = x8

can you help me not just give answer

Answer 1

Look at the pairs.
1 - 81
2 - 100
3 - 121
THe first numbers are just going upwards in succession obviously. 1, 2, 3, 4...
But the second numbers are all perfect square. 81 (9x9), 100 (10x10), 121 (11x11).

Do you see the pattern?

Answer 2

plus one

Answer 3

my options are
y = x8
y = 8x
y = (x + 8)2
y = 8x

Answer 4

would it be number 3(x+8)2

Answer 5

\[y=(x+8)^{2}\]
(1+8)^2 = 81
(2+8)^ = 100
looks like a winner to me.
