through the points (0, 7), (2,13), and (4, 35).
- Reasoning The diagram at the right shows the differences
for the cubic function f(x) = x3 - 2x + 5 for the x-values 0,
1, 2,3, 4, and 5.
a. Write the second and third differences in the
appropriate locations in the diagram.
b. What do you predict the third difference would be if/(6)
were added to the diagram?
c. Do you think that the third differences will be constant for
other cubic functions? Explain why or why not.

Use the quadratic formula to solve each equation. If necessary, round to the
nearest hundredth.
- 4x2 + 4x — 3 = 0 33. x2 + 2x - 7 = 0
See Lesson 9-6.
- 3x2 — 8x = — 1
