1) The function is 3(x + 2)³ - 3
2) The end behaviour is the limits when x approaches +/- infinity.
3) Since the polynomial is of odd degree you can predict that the ends head off in opposite direction. The limits confirm that.
4) The limit when x approaches negative infinity is negative infinity, then the left end of the function heads off downward (toward - ∞).
5) The limit when x approaches positive infinity is positivie infinity, then the right end of the function heads off upward (toward + ∞).
6) To graph the function it is important to determine:
- x-intercepts
- y-intercepts
- critical points: local maxima, local minima, and inflection points.
7) x-intercepts ⇒ y = 0
⇒ <span>3(x + 2)³ - 3 = 0 ⇒ (x + 2)³ - 1 = 0
</span>
<span>⇒ (x + 2)³ = -1 ⇒ x + 2 = 1 ⇒ x = - 1
</span>
8) y-intercepts ⇒ x = 0
y = <span>3(x + 2)³ - 3 = 3(0 + 2)³ - 3 = 0 - 3×8 - 3 = 24 - 3 = 21

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3> The complete exercise is: "A rectangular yard is 20 ft by 15 ft. The yard is cover with grass except for 8.5 feet square flower garden. How much grass is in the yard?"</h3><h3 />The area of a rectangle can be calculated with the following formula:
Where "l" is the lenght of the rectangle and "w" is the width.
Based on the data given in the exercise, you can identify tha the length and the width of the rectangular yard are:
Then, you can substitute these values into the formula and then evaluate in order to find the area of the entire yard:
The area of the flower garden which is an square, can be calculated with this formula:
Where "s" is the side length.
In this case you know that:
Then the area of the flower garden is:
<em> </em>Since this is not covered with grass, you need to subtract both areas calculated above in order to find the surface covered with grass in the yard.
This is:
