Can anyone help me with cubic functions?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YAY!!!! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I will award anyone who helps me with a medal!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what's the question? :)

Ok. First I am going to tell you why I need the help. My math class doesn't have a text book so I can't look up how to do this stuff. And it is really confusing. My teacher just asked us to: Give an equation for a cubic function where the graph is always increasing.

ooh I remember these.. one second and I'll find it iin my book

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

try y = x^3

Thank you so much! I also need: 2.Give an equation for a cubic function where the graph is always decreasing. 3. Give an equation for a cubic function where the graph changes from increasing to decreasing and back again.

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

just use the negative

I can't really remember so I'm just going to type things that seem relevant and maybe I'll eventually remember.. so, first ting I found was when A>0 and b>1 the graph will keep increasing away from the x-axxis .. that was under graphing exponential functions of the form ab^x a cubic function is usually given by f(x)=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d it would look like:
