Question

The graph below is an example of which type of function

Answer 1

Solution:

C is the correct graph.

Explanation:

We have been given the graph and we have to tell the type of the graph.

The graph of a quadratic function is a parabola. Hence, the given graph is not the graph of quadratic function.

A linear function represents a straight line. Hence, the given graph is not the graph of linear function.

The graph of a square root function looks like a half parabola. Hence, it must not be the graph of square root function.

The end behavior of a cubic function is "opposite at both ends". We can see that the given graph meets this criteria.

Hence, the given graph represents a cubic function.

C is the correct graph.

Answer 2

This equation is a cubic equation, because cubic equations are sloped and have opposite endings.
