In this lesson, we will learn how to graph cubic functions written in factored form and identify where they cross the axes.

Students will be able to

identify the graph of a factored cubic function, in particular
- where the function crosses or touches the (by identifying the roots),
- where the function crosses the (by setting ),
- the end behavior of the function as it tends to positive or negative infinity,
identify a cubic function given its graph,
factor a cubic function that has as a common factor and identify its graph.
