Question

Can some help me with this?
Consider the function f(x)=-(1/2) x^3+3
(a) Graph the function by completing the table of values
x=–2 –1 0 1 2
(b) Use transformations to discuss how the graph of f(x) compares to the graph of g(x) = x3.

Answer 1

this problem might be easier for you and others to understand if y ou'd please write it as f(x)=(-1/2)x^3+5. the (-1/2) is a coefficient of the 3rd power of x.

Answer 2

Either you are given a table of (x,y) values, or you must create your own. Let x={-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, etc.} and find the corresponding y-values, using this function.

Answer 3

Refer to the attached plot.
