7-5 Cubic Functions

A cubic function is a function in which the greatest power of the variable is 3. The most basic cubic function is y = nx3 where n ≠ 0.

Holt CA Course 1

7-5 Cubic Functions

Create a table for each cubic function, and use it to graph the function. (Use 5 ‘x’ values: +, 0, and -)
