We are given function: y=
Where, x is the number of hours after 5a.m.
We need to approximates the number of people standing in line to catch a commuter train at 7 a.m.
From 5 a.m. to 7 a.m. total number of hours = 7-5 = 2 hours.
So, we need to plug x=2 in the given function.
Plugging x=2 in , we get
Let us simplify it now.
2^2= 4.
Therefore,
= -20.524 + 63.642 - 3.333.
= 39.785 or 40 approximately.
Therefore, the number of people in line at 7 a.m. is approximately 40 people.
Option D.40 is correct option.
So essentially, this is a cubic function where T(x) = y, and:
In order to find the vertices, aka "turning points", we need to see around what area the graph will curve quickly from bottom-left to top-right. If the value being cubed (in the parentheses) is around -8, y will be close to 0, since -8+7=-1. (-2)^3 = -8. So x+5=-2, x=-7.
At x=-6, y = (-6+5)^3+7 = (-1)^3+7
y = -1+7 = 6
At x=-5, y = 0+7 = 7
Above x=-4, the y jumps rapidly above 10, and below x=-9, the y jumps rapidly below -50
What does all that mean???
That between x = -9 and x = -4 (x = -4,-5,-6,-7,-8,-9), the temperature (T(x) or y) does not change very much. Therefore, around those temperatures is a turning point, where the phase shift occurs from solid/liquid.
