Step 1
let quadratic function is y= ax2+bx+c ----(1)
from table (x,y)= (2,398),(4,1603),(6,3602)
at (2,398) from (1) 4a+2b+c=398 ----(2)
at (4,1603) from (1) 16a+4b+c=1603 -----(3)
at (6,3602) from (1) 36a+6b+c=3602 -----(4)
from (1) c= 398-4a-2b
put value of c in (3), we get
16a+4b+398-4a-2b=1603
12a+2b= 1205 ----(5)
put value of c in (4), we get
36a+6b+398-4a-2b=3602
32a+4b=3204 ---(6)
multiply (5) by 2 and subtract from (6) ,we get
24a+4b-32a-4b= 2410-3204
-8a=-794
a= 99.25
put a in (5), we get
12(99.25)+2b=1205
1191+2b=1205
b=7
now c= 398-4(99.25)-2(7)= 398-397-14=13
