@dpaInc Need help with precalc?:D http://puu.sh/1pF4v

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

Part a) if you were walking on the graph from left to right, on what intervals will you be going up hill?

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

part b) if you were walking on the graph from left to right, at what point/s will you be in the valley of two hills

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

part(c) does this look like a cubic, -cubic, squared, or -squared function?

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

you here? @Lukecrayonz

OpenStudy (lukecrayonz):

yes

OpenStudy (lukecrayonz):

@zzr0ck3r a negative cubic function

OpenStudy (lukecrayonz):

and for d? I have the other answers

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

so negative.

OpenStudy (lukecrayonz):

and since they go in opposite directions, its either 5, 7 or 9?

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

well not really, it looks like a cubic because it looks like the highest power in the long run. for this you need to see how many times it changes from decreasing to increasin and vice versa, this number will always be smaller than the degree

OpenStudy (lukecrayonz):

4 critical points, right?

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

well i guess you are right also...:)

OpenStudy (lukecrayonz):

4 critical points, odd negative graph means that it has to be 5 7 9 etc etc

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

yes, just understand that it could not be 3
