6x4= 24
24 possible outcomes
Plug x = 0 into the function
f(x) = x^3 + 2x - 1
f(0) = 0^3 + 2(0) - 1
f(0) = -1
Note how the result is negative. The actual number itself doesn't matter. All we care about is the sign of the result.
Repeat for x = 1
f(x) = x^3 + 2x - 1
f(1) = 1^3 + 2(1) - 1
f(1) = 2
This result is positive.
---------------------------
We found that f(0) = -1 and f(1) = 2. The first output -1 is negative while the second output 2 is positive. Going from negative to positive means that, at some point, we will hit y = 0. We might have multiple instances of this happening, or just one. We don't know for sure. The only thing we do know is that there is at least one root in this interval.
To actually find this root, you'll need to use a graphing calculator because the root is some complicated decimal value. Using a graphing calculator, you should find the root to be approximately 0.4533976515
If you plot the points you can easily find the answer. (X,Y) The x-axis is the horizontal line and the y-axis is the vertical line.
PART - A : tent - 1 volume = 400 cubic ft
Tent -2 volume = 384 cubic ft.
PART - B : I recommend Joe to make the tent -1 with base 10x10 ft. as it has more volume
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
PART - A:
tent 1 :
Base = 10 x 10ft
Height= 12 ft
Volume = (1/3) (10x 10) (12)
= (1/3) (100) (12)
= 400 cubic ft.
Tent 2:
Base = 12 x 12 ft
Height= 8 ft.
Volume = (1/3) (12 x 12) (8)
= 384 cubic ft.
PART - B:
I recommend Joe to make the tent -1 with base 10x10 ft. as it has more volume
