Question
Create a flow chart to show the process to determine whether a given data set represents a function that is linear , quadratic , exponential or none of these.
Hint:
1. When the difference between 2 consecutive output values (y values) for a given constant change in the input values (x values) is constant. i.e. y(n)- y(n-1) is constant for any value of n, the function is known as a linear function.
2. When the difference between 2 consecutive differences for output values (y values) for a given constant change in the input values (x values) is constant. i.e. dy(n)- dy(n-1) is constant for any value of n, the function is known as a quadratic function.
3. When the ratio between 2 consecutive output values (y values) for a given constant change in the input values (x values) is constant i.e. 
is constant for any value of n, the function is known as an exponential function.
The correct answer is: Refer the adjacent diagram.
Step-by-step solution:-
We will plot all the steps involved in finding whether a function is linear or quadratic or exponential in a flow chart as shown in the adjacent diagram.
Final Answer:-
∴ Refer the adjacent diagram.
