Help on calculus graph
X and y intercepts
I asked my classmate and apparently you’re supposed to pick two numbers off the graph and that’s the other solution
i guess im just confused by the designation of special and other solution
so you've found the x intercept (1,0)
there is 1 more
btw just dropping in to say that this looks more like algebra than calculus. minor nitpick though, feel free to ignore.
like mentioned in your other post, any pair (x, y) that fulfills the equation is a solution.
if in doubt, set x to something easy, like 1 or 2, and solve for y.
(not recommended to set y here, because then that means solving a quadratic on the other side, which is a little more tedious than computing a cube root with a calculator or similar.)
based on OP's previous post, I'm inclined to think that's what is meant by "other solutions".
