Form 5 Chapter 2 Graphs of Functions II

This document contains 4 multi-part math problems involving graphing cubic functions on a graphing grid. For each problem, students are asked to: 1) complete a table of x and y values, 2) graph the cubic function using a scale, 3) find specific x and y values from the graph, and 4) draw and state the solution to a related linear equation. The document provides context and steps to solve various cubic functions involving parameters and variables.
