Example 1: Does the curve y = 2x3 – 2 crosses the x-axis between x = 0 and x = 2? Solution: Solving for the given values of x‚ at x = 0‚ then y = 2(0)3 – 2 = -2‚ the curve is below the x-axis at x = 2‚ y = 2(2)3 – 2 = 16 – 2 = 14‚ the curve is above the x-axis‚ So the curve crosses the x-axis between x = 0 and x = 2 since y = 2x3 – 2 has a solution found between this interval. Example 2: From the curve y = x5 - 2x3 – 2‚ is there a solution between x = 1 and x = 2? Solution: Using the given
