Use the quadratic model to predict the exam score for someone who works 100 problems

I am assuming x is the number of problems worked and y (or y-hat) is predicted score, but we can't compute that without either having data or having values for a, b, and c in the quadratic equation y = ax^2 + bx + c.

To predict the exam score for someone who works 100 problems using a quadratic model, we would first need a quadratic equation that relates the number of problems worked to the exam score. The general form of a quadratic equation is: 𝑦=𝑎𝑥^2+𝑏𝑥+𝑐 where: 𝑦: represents the exam score, 𝑥: represents the number of problems worked, 𝑎,𝑏, and c are constants based on the data. Here is the data points (e.g., number of problems worked and corresponding exam scores), you can use those to determine the values of 𝑎,𝑏, and c. Once the quadratic model is established, you can plug in 𝑥=100 (the number of problems worked) to predict the exam score.
