Which of the points below does not lie on the curve y=x^2 ? (3/2, 9/2) (-1, 1) (4, 16) (1/2, 1/4)

We are given the equation y = x^2 and 4 points in the form (x, y).

Replace x and y in the equation with the values of x and y for each given point. The values that yield the same answer on both sides of the equation lie on the graph of y = x^2. The opposite is also true.

Let's try every point.

(3/2, 9/2)

9/2 = (3/2)^2

9/2 does not equal 9/4. Not a point on the graph of the equation.

1 = (-1)^2

1 = 1

Point on the graph of the equation.

(4, 16)

16 = 4^2

16 = 16

Point on the graph of the equation.

(1/2, 1/4)

1/4 = (1/2)^2

1/4 = 1/4

Point on the graph of the equation.

The only point not on the graph of the equation y = x^2 is (3/2, 9/2).

Understand?

i believe the correct answer is option 4.principalities were small territories that were run by russian rulers.

which statement correctly defines principalities in northern asia in the 1200s? principalities were small territories that were run by russian rulers.

hope i could ! : )
