1. Ask your question and show the work you've done so far. If you've posted a screenshot of a question, specify which part you need help with.
2. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
3. Once someone helps you, say thank you and close the thread with:

   +close
   

4. Feel free to nominate the person for helper of the week in #helper-nominations
5. Do not ping the mods, unless someone is breaking the rules.
6. If you're happy with the help you got here, and the server overall, you can contribute financially as well:

For the linear part, find slope, that will be your m. So, m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). Pick any pair of coordinates. Next plug your m in and choose a random pair of x and y (e.g. 3, -72) and from that derive b. For the quadratic part, its easy, choose a pair again and plug it and solve for a. And for the exponential part, pick 2 pairs, plug them in and solve the system for a and b. You could just do division since exponents are gonna be 4 and 3 (first and second pair) so they will cancel out leaving only b.

LOL

[sturdy lark]

missed the part where you need to check that all points satisfy (clearly, a linear does not work)

First, check whether the points lie on a line. If not, recall how the other two models can be linearized.

The corresponding angles in congruent shapes are equal.

so what is it

Well, what do you think?
