Data from real-world applications rarely match a linear, exponential, or quadratic model perfectly. The table shows the revenue for selling various units. Determine whether a linear, exponential, or quadratic model best represents the data in the table. Explain your reasoning.
-
Use a spreadsheet to analyze the data. The first differences are about equal. So, a linear model best represents the data.

2 Folds
4 SectionsWrite a formula for the model that represents the data.
-
Each time the paper is folded, the number of sections doubles.
Let n be the number of folds. Let S be the number of sections.
A formula that relates n and S is
