Fill in the blanks i) [3] the charts' ii) [2]a values, iii) [1] the second missing values equation y = 2x' +1; a= y = a= X Y Istdiff 2nddiff 3rddiff X Y Istdiff 2nddiff 3rddiff 0 0 1 3 1 3 17 24 2 2 81 3 55 3 4 192 4 129 iv) [1]In a cubic model what is the equation that relates a to the 3raddiff, d? e) [1] What is the general formula relating the no difference, (nthdiff, "d") in a table of an n' degree polynomial function to the equation's leading co-efficient "a"? Consider the n! values from part a, and your conclusions in parts iv) of b, c and d; your answer here should no be very complicated
