Vocabulary • A cubic function is a nonlinear function that can be written in the standard form y = ax3 + bx2 + cx + d where a ≠ 0 • The shape of a cubic function graph is an “S”. • Examples:
Vocabulary • A function f is an odd function: • When you plug in a -1 all the signs change. • A function f is an even function: • When you plug in a -1 non of the signs change. • A function f is neither: • When you plug in a -1 and some signs change and some signs don’t.
Vocabulary • The end behavior of a function’s graph is the behavior of the graph as x approaches positive infinity or negative infinity. • Example:
Example 1: • Graph y = x3 + 3. Compare with the parent function y = x3. And describe the end behavior. • make a TABLE!
Example 2: • Graph y = -4x3. Compare to the parent function y = x3. And describe the end behavior. • Make a TABLE!
Example 3: • Consider the function f(x) = 1/3x3 – 3x • Tell whether the function is even, odd, or neither • Consider the function f(x) = x4 + 2 • Tell whether the function is even, odd, or neither
