Can someone pls help me w this

a = 2

b = 1

c = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic equation, 2x² + x + 1 = 0, is expressed in the standard form as ax² + bx + c, where a ≠ 0.

Thus,

a = 2

b = 1 (1 * x = x)

c = 1

No, the points are in a linear pattern.

Step-by-step explanation:

Residual = actual value - predicted value

So our residual points are:

1, -2.4

2, -4.9

3, -6.2

4, -6

5, -7.9

As evidenced in the image, the points follow a linear pattern.
