\"\"

\

The polynomial equation is \"\".

\

Make a table of values.

\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \
\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"
\

Observe the table:

\
\

Since \"\" is a third degree polynomial, since it has either \"\" or \"\" real zeros.

\

The change in sign indicates that there is a zero between \"\" and \"\".

\
\

Graph:

\

Graph the function \"\".

\

Plot the points obtained in the table

\

\"\"

\

Observe the graph:

\

The function has relative maxima at \"\"-coordinate \"\" and it has relative minima at

\

\"\"-coordinate \"\".

\

Find domain and range: \ \

\

The function is defined for all values of \"\".

\

So, the domain is set of all real numbers.

\

The function consider all real numbers.

\

So, the range is set of all real numbers.

\

\"\"

\

The function has relative maxima at \"\"-coordinate \"\" and it has relative minima at

\

\"\"-coordinate \"\".

\

The function domain and range are all real numbers.
