The equation of the graph shown is
Worked solution (try it first)
The curve touches the
x-axis at
(3,0) and flattens out there, so
(x−3) is a repeated factor, three times over for a cubic.
That suggests
y=(x−3)3.
Check the
y-intercept: at
x=0,
y=(−3)3=−27, which matches the graph.
So the equation is
y=(x−3)3, option A.
