Find the zero(s) of the function f to five decimal places. $$ f(x)=x^{3}-9 x+4 $$
Find the exact value of the given expression. $$ \cos ^{-1}\left(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right) $$
Plot the graph of the function \(f\) in an appropriate viewing window. (Note: The answer is not unique.) $$ \begin{array}{l} f(x)=-2 x^{4}+5 x^{2}-4\\\ \text { 7. } f(x)=\frac{x^{3}}{x^{3}+1} \end{array} $$
Let \(f(x)=2 x^{3}-5 x^{2}+x-2\) and \(g(x)=2 x^{3}\). a. Plot the graph of \(f\) and \(g\) using the same viewing window: \([-5,5] \times[-5,5]\). b. Plot the graph of \(f\) and \(g\) using the same viewing window: \([-50,50] \times[-100,000,100,000] .\) c. Explain why the graphs of \(f\) and \(g\) that you obtained in part (b) seem to coalesce as \(x\) increases or decreases without bound. Hint: Write \(f(x)=2 x^{3}\left(1-\frac{5}{2 x}+\frac{1}{2 x^{2}}-\frac{1}{x^{3}}\right)\) and study its behavior for large values of \(x\).
Plot the graph of the function \(f\) in an appropriate viewing window. (Note: The answer is not unique.) $$ f(x)=\frac{1}{2+\cos x} $$
