population 350 353 382 437 518 625 758 find a quadratic function that models the data as a function of x, the number of weeks. use the model to estimate the number of fish at the lake on week 8. (1 point)
•p(x) = 13x2 – 10x + 350; 917 fish
•p(x) = 13x2 – 10x + 350; 1,102 fish
•p(x) = 18x2 + 10x + 300; 1,252 fish
•p(x) = 18x2 + 10x + 300; 1,532 fish
