Answer: -19, -15, -9, -1, 9 (choice A)
===================================================
Explanation:
If we plug in x = -2, then we get,
y = x^2 + 7x - 9
y = (-2)^2 + 7(-2) - 9
y = 4 - 14 - 9
y = -10 - 9
y = -19
So x = -2 leads to y = -19. The answer is between A and D.
---------
If you repeat those steps for x = -1, then you should get y = -15
Then x = 0 leads to y = -9
x = 1 leads to y = -1
Finally, x = 2 leads to y = 9
The outputs we get are: -19, -15, -9, -1, 9 which is choice A
Choice D is fairly close, but we won't have a second copy of -15, and we don't have an output of -19.
