If you have a cubic polynomial of the form y = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d and lets say it passes through the points (2,28), (-1, -5),

nikklg [1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Solve using the first point

(2, 28)

$28 = a(2)^3 + b(2)^2 + c(2) + d$

$28 = 8a + 4b + 2c + d$

Step 2: Solve using the second point

(-1, -5)

$-5 = a(-1)^3 + b(-1)^2 + c(-1) + d$

$-5 = -a + b - c + d$

Step 3: Solve using the third point

(4, 220)

$220 = a(4)^3 + b(4)^2 + c(4) + d$

$220 = 64a + 16b + 4c + d$

Step 4: Solve using the fourth point

(-2, -20)

$-20 = a(-2)^3 + b(-2)^2 + c(-2) + d$

$-20 = -8a + 4b - 2c + d$

Step 5: Combine the first and fourth equations

$28 - 20 = 8a - 8a + 4b + 4b + 2c - 2c + d + d$

$8 = 8b + 2d$

$8 - 8b = 8b - 8b + 2d$

$(8 -8b)/2 = 2d/2$

$4 - 4b = d$

Step 6: Solve for c in the second equation

$-5 + 5 = -a + b - c + d + 5$

$0 + c = -a + b - c + c + d + 5$

$c = -a + b + d + 5$

Step 7: Substitute d with the stuff we got in step 5

$c = -a + b + (4 - 4b) + 5$

$c = -a + b + 4 - 4b + 5$

$c = -a - 3b + 9$

Step 8: Substitute d and c into the first equation

$28 = 8a + 4b + 2(-a - 3b + 9) + (4 - 4b)$

$28 = 8a + 4b - 2a - 6b + 18 + 4 - 4b$

$28 - 22 = 6a - 6b + 22 - 22$

$6 / 6 = (6a - 6b) / 6$

$1 + b = a - b + b$

$1 + b = a$

Step 9: Substitute a, b, and c into the third equation

$220 = 64(1 + b) + 16b + 4(-(1 + b) - 3b + 9) + (4 - 4b)$

$220 = 64 + 64b + 16b + 4(-1 - b - 3b + 9) + 4 - 4b$

$220 - 100 = 60b + 100 - 100$

$120 / 60 = 60b / 60$

$2 = b$

Step 10: Find a using b = 2

$a = b + 1$

$a = (2) + 1$

$a = 3$

Step 11: Find c using a = 3 and b = 2

$c = -a - 3b + 9$

$c = -(3) - 3(2) + 9$

$c = -3 - 6 + 9$

$c = 0$

Step 12: Find d using b = 2

$d = 4 - 4b$

$d = 4 - 4(2)$

$d = 4 - 8$

$d = -4$

Answer: $a = 3, b = 2, c = 0,d = -4$

Answer:

C f(x) = {4e^x -5, ..., -x +7, ...

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest portion to check is the constant section in the interval [0, 6]. All of the function definitions agree on that, so that doesn't help choose the right answer.

Next easiest is the linear section at the right. It has a negative slope. Extension of the line to the y-axis shows it has a positive y-intercept. This eliminates choices A and D.

The horizontal asymptote of the exponential portion at the left is -5. Both of the remaining choices B and C agree on that. The exponential is increasing at an increasing rate, so its coefficient is positive. This eliminates choice B.

The appropriate description of the function on the graph is offered by choice C.

_____

The graph below plots the function. We note that the given graph seems to show the exponential curve incorrectly.
