Chapter 1, Problem 48

(choose chapter or problem)

(a) Use a graphing utility to graph the functions \(f, g\), and \(h\) in the same viewing window. Write a description of any similarities and differences you observe among the graphs.

Odd powers: \(f(x)=x, g(x)=x^{3}, h(x)=x^{5}\)

Even powers: \(f(x)=x^{2}, g(x)=x^{4}, h(x)=x^{6}\)

(b) Use the result in part (a) to make a conjecture about the graphs of the functions \(y=x^{7}\) and \(y=x^{8}\). Use a graphing utility to verify your conjecture.

Text Transcription:

f, g

h

f(x) = x, g(x) = x^{3}, h(x) = x^{5}

f(x) = x^{2}, g(x) = x^{4}, h(x) = x^{6}

y = x^7

y = x^8
