To determine which type of function is modeled by the table of values, you can look for patterns in the rate of change between the values.
- If the rate of change is constant, the function is likely linear.
- If the rate of change is increasing or decreasing at a constant rate, the function is likely quadratic.
- If the rate of change is increasing or decreasing at an increasing rate, the function is likely exponential.
- If the rate of change is increasing or decreasing at a decreasing rate, the function is likely cubic.
