Create a scatter plot of the above data.
\Draw a coordinate plane.
\Plot the points obtained by from the table.
\Connect all those points.
\Observe the above graph :
\The polynomial function represents a straight line.
\Find the polynomial function by using the points and
.
Let the points are and
.
The line equation passing through the points and
is
.
The line equation passing through the points and
is :
Thus, the polynomial function is .
Thus, the polynomial function is .
