sin ^3 x- cos x +1=0 solve the equation graphically over the interval [0,2pi] express the solution to the nearest hundredth help me ppl zp…

OpenStudy (ranga):

Are you allowed to use a graphic calculator?

OpenStudy (ranga):

hello???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes sir

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i dont no how to used it

OpenStudy (ranga):

If you have a graphing calculator you can use that to graph the function. If not, go to the graphing website (link given below) and type in the function as: (sin(x))^3 - cos(x) + 1 It will graph the function. Position the cursor at each of the points where it crosses the x axis and it will tell you the x,y coordinates. All the x values are where the function becomes zero and those are your solutions. You need to go only from 0 to 2pi. https://www.desmos.com/calculator

what window do u used

OpenStudy (ranga):

You need to type the function in the left hand column in the box. Just copy from here and paste it there: (sin(x))^3 - cos(x) + 1 Windows XP

i did but i need to set up the windoes in calculator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to see the graph

OpenStudy (ranga):

I don't know what calculator you have or how to use it. But I am telling you how to do it on the website from your computer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have ti 84

OpenStudy (ranga):

I don't have one and so I can't help you. Go to YouTube, type in ti 84 graphing tutorial and see if there are any videos that will help you.

i got x=0 and x=4.712 and x=5.708

OpenStudy (ranga):

There should be 5 x values where the function goes to zero. You got the first three. There is two more.

OpenStudy (ranga):

5.918 and 6.283

OpenStudy (ranga):

But they want the answers in the nearest hundredth and so you need to round off to two decimals: 0, 4.71, 5.71, 5.92 and 6.28

OpenStudy (ranga):

I have to go. Good luck.
