Question

y=-x^3 +5 . I need to find the x intercept(s) and the y intercept(s).
Is the graph symmetric with respect to the x-axis?
Is the graph symmetric with respect to the y-axis?
Is the graph symmetric with respect to the origin?

Answer 1

none of them is correct
look this file

Answer 2

-x^3 +5=0,the x intercept:x=5^(1/3),y=0+5,the y inteyrcept:y=5

Answer 3

the graph is symmetric with respect to the point (0,5)

Answer 4

So i had the x intercept as 0 and the y as 5, but your saying the x intercept is 5^(1/3) ?

Answer 5

how got the x intercept : 0 ??? @confusedstudent2012

Answer 6

i mean I got 5=x^3 and i didnt know how to move on from that. I got that by subtracting the 5 out on both sides

Answer 7

and then i thought, if i let x = o then y would be 5, i wasnt sure how to handle the problem
