A p(x) = -24x^3

B p(x) = -6x^3

C p(x) = 6x^3

D p(x) = 8x^3

Answer 1

So you are trying to find a?

Answer 2

Im not too sure

Answer 3

Yes you are.

Answer 4

Supposed to find a.

Answer 5

So what they have given you is an initial condition value. If you inser 2 into ax^3 you are supposed to get -48.
So can you set up an equation using the draw tool.?

Answer 6
