Question 47549: The table shows several value of the function f(x)=-x^3+x^2-x+2. Complete the missing values in the table, and then use these values and the imtermediate value theorem to determine (an) interval(s) where the function must have zero.
Table:
X |-2|-1| 0| 1| 2|
y |16| | | | |
I initially had 8, 0, -8, -4 in the blank spots of teh table for y but I am not sure if that is correct.

Question 49131: I have a word problem that I have been working on that I am not getting.
A manufacturer of compact stereos believes that the revenue the company receives is related to the price (p) of a stereo by the function R(p)= 180p-1/3p^2. What price will give the maximum revenue, and what is the maximum revenue? So what I am wondering is..... Do I just plug in different prices? I have done this, but I just kepp getting higher numbers. When do I know I have the max number? I was hoping it would just finally go into the negative, but it does not. so..... Any ideas?
