Question

1. Use your equations from Lesson 1 to create a graph of two polynomial functions so that you can compare volumes for different values of x. Compare the volumes.
(I can provide these to who needs them)

and

2. Use the graph from Question 1 to identify where the volumes are equal. Confirm this value by writing and solving an equation that describes the difference between the volumes of the candle types.

Just looking for guidance to help, not someone to do my homework.

Answer 1

I am lost and don't know where to begin

Answer 2

we are all lost

Answer 3

since we don't have question one

Answer 4

@Maddy1251 Post the graph :)

Answer 5

@Clalgee I do not have graphs yet however I have equations.

Answer 6

@ganeshie8

Answer 7

@Maddy1251 Put in the rest of the information.. gane is the best person for help :P

Answer 8

Volumes are equal at the point where the two curves intersect

```

where are the polynomials and graphs ?

Answer 9

for graphing, you may click below link and enter the equations of polynomials

Answer 10

Brick Polynomial equation is V=x^³-x^²
and Egyptian polynomial equation is V= 1/3x^2+7x (from what I found)

Answer 11

They want us to make a graph, so I do not have one yet. Thats what I am trying to create.

Answer 12

got you :)
for part1, enter below equations in desmos site :

y = x^3 - x^2
y = 1/3x^2 + 7x

Answer 13

wait, the second volume equations doesn't look correct as its degree is just 2
can you double check the equations ?
