Answer:


g(x)=x^(2)

Explanation:

Since we know that a function gives exactly one output for a given input.

We can see that number of points in our diagram are 1,4 and 9.

These numbers represent a quadratic function as:


1^(2) =1


2^(2) =4


3^(2) =9

Therefore, we can represent these points in a function as
g(x)=x^(2), where x is number of points.
