Find a polynomial P(x) = a + a₁x + a₂x² of degree 2 which gives the best least squares fit for the following points: (-2,-8), (0,9), (4,-25), (5,-22) How to enter polynomials. Enter the formula for a polynomial using to denote multiplication and the exponent. For example, if the answer is the polynomial P(x) = 1 − 2x + x² + +45x3 then you should enter 1 - 2*x + (3/7)*x^2 + 4.5*x^3. Do not forget to use for multiplication! to denote 10 0 -10- -20 -30 -2 Note. You can enter polynomial coefficients either as fractions or in the decimal form, with precision up to 3 decimal places. -1 0 2
