Match the data with one of the following functions $$f(x)=c x, g(x)=c x^{2}, h(x)=c \sqrt{|x|}, \quad \text {and} \quad r(x)=\frac{c}{x}$$ and determine the value of the constant \(c\) that will make the function fit the data in the table. $$\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|}\hline x & -4 & -1 & 0 & 1 & 4 \\\\\hline y & -1 & -\frac{1}{4} & 0 & \frac{1}{4} & 1 \\\\\hline\end{array}$$
Find the difference quotient and simplify your Answer: $$f(x)=x^{2 / 3}+1, \quad \frac{f(x)-f(8)}{x-8}, \quad x \neq 8$$
Find a mathematical model that represents the statement. (Determine the constant of proportionality.) \(v\) varies jointly as \(p\) and \(q\) and inversely as the square of \(s .(v=1.5 \text { when } p=4.1, q=6.3, \text { and } s=1.2 .)\)
Find the difference quotient and simplify your Answer: $$f(x)=4 x^{2}-2 x, \quad \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}, \quad h \neq 0$$
Find the difference quotient and simplify your Answer: $$g(x)=\frac{1}{x^{2}}, \quad \frac{g(x)-g(3)}{x-3}, \quad x \neq 3$$
