Well, the cheap answer is
f(x) = -3| x - 1 | is really just f(x) = -3| x - 1 | + 0.
now, what value of "x" makes the absolute value expression to 0?
well, let's just set it to 0 and check,
x - 1 = 0
x = 1
so if "x" ever becomes 1, the | x - 1| will turn to 0, therefore, the vertex is at
f(x) = -3| (1) - 1 | + 0 --------------> ( 1, 0 )
Answer:
8+10v
Step-by-step explanation:
At first let us choose the 5 points
at x = 0, y = 0
The first point is (0, 0)
![y=ax^3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3Dax%5E3)
We will choose a = 1/2
The points are
(-2, -4)
(-1, -1/2)
(0, 0)
(1, 1/2)
(2, 4)
