b) First

c) Second

d) Fourth

​

Answer 1

(c) The delta of power two is called the second order difference operater.

Answer 2

The Delta of power two is called the second order difference operator.

Explanation:

Correct option is option (c).

The Delta of power one is called the first order difference operator.

Δ$_{h}$$[f](x)=f(x+h)-f(x)$

The Delta of power two is called the second order difference operator.

Δ$.^{2}$$f" = \frac{f(x+h)-2f(x)+f(x-h)}{h^{2} }$

The Delta of power three is called the third order difference operator.

The Delta of power four is called the fourth order difference operator.

Generally, higher orders is not required.
