What's this about?
This is, in some way, the opposite of curve sketching. Curve sketching means you got a function and are looking for roots, turning and inflection points. What we do here is the opposite: Your got some roots, inflection points, turning points etc. and are looking for a function having those.
How to reconstruct a function?
Primarily, you have to find equations and solve them. This gives you the coefficients of your function. Here is an example: Let's assume we are looking for a function of degree having a minimum turning point at (1|-4) and a maximum turning point at (-1|3).
You are looking for a function with:
quadratic function
Maximum turning point at (-1|3)
Minimum turning point at (1|-4)
Mathepower found the following function:
This is the graph of your function.
- Roots at -0.386; 3.886
- y-axis intercept at (0|-1.5)
- Maximum and minimum turning points at (1.75|-4.563)
- Inflection points
This is how Mathepower calculated:
The point at (-1|3) gives the equation :
simplified: :
1a-1b+1c=3
The point at (1|-4) gives the equation :
simplified: :
1a+1b+1c=-4
So, we got the following system of equations: :
a | -1b | +c | = | 3 |
a | +b | +c | = | -4 |
This is how to solve this system of equations:
| |||||||||||
| ( -1 times line 1 was added to line 2 ) | ||||||||||
| ( The 2 line was divided by 2 ) |
2 line: | b+0c = -3,5 |
c can be chosen freely | |
Solve for b : : | b = 0c -3,5 |
1 line: |
| |||||
Substitute variables already known: |
| |||||
Solve for a : | a = -1c -0,5 |
This means that c is equal to -1,5
Inserting shows that the function equals to ist.
How to find a function through given points?
The general rule is that for any n given points there is a function of degree whose graph goes through them. So e.g. you find by solving equations a function of degree through the four points (-1|3), (0|2), (1|1) und (2|4):
You are looking for a function with:
Function of degree 3
Point at (-1|3)
Point at (0|2)
Point at (1|1)
Point at (2|4)
Mathepower found the following function:
This is the graph of your function.
- Roots at -2
- y-axis intercept at (0|2)
- Maximum and minimum turning points at (-0.913|3.014); (0.913|0.986)
- Inflection points at (0|2)
This is how Mathepower calculated:
The point at (-1|3) gives the equation :
simplified: :
-1a+1b-1c+1d=3
The point at (0|2) gives the equation :
simplified: :
0a+0b+0c+1d=2
The point at (1|1) gives the equation :
simplified: :
1a+1b+1c+1d=1
The point at (2|4) gives the equation :
simplified: :
8a+4b+2c+1d=4
So, we got the following system of equations: :
-1a | +b | -1c | +d | = | 3 |
d | = | 2 | |||
a | +b | +c | +d | = | 1 |
8a | +4b | +2c | +d | = | 4 |
This is how to solve this system of equations:
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ( -8 times line 3 was added to line 4 ) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ( 1 times line 1 was added to line 3 ) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ( The 1 line was divided by -1 ) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ( 2 times line 3 was added to line 4 ) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ( the 3 line was interchanged with the 2 line ) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ( The 2 line was divided by 2 ) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ( the 4 line was interchanged with the 3 line ) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ( The 3 line was divided by -6 ) |
3 line: |
| ||||||
Substitute variables already known: |
| ||||||
Solve for c : | c = -1,667 |
2 line: |
| ||||||
Substitute variables already known: |
| ||||||
Solve for b : | b = 0 |
1 line: |
| ||||||
Substitute variables already known: |
| ||||||
Solve for a : | a = 0,667 |
Inserting shows that the function equals to ist.
How to find a function with a given inflection point?
An inflection point gives multiple equations: On the one hand, you got the y-value. On the other hand, you know that the second derivative is at an inflection point. Let's take a look at an example for a function of degree having an inflection point at (1|3):
You are looking for a function with:
Function of degree 3
root at 2
root at 4
Inflection point at (1|3)
Mathepower found the following function:
This is the graph of your function.
- Roots
- y-axis intercept at (0|0)
- Maximum and minimum turning points
- Inflection points
This is how Mathepower calculated:
The point at (1|3) gives the equation :
simplified: :
1a+1b+1c+1d=3
So, we got the following system of equations: :
a | +b | +c | +d | = | 3 |
This is how to solve this system of equations:
1 line: | c+1d = 3 |
d can be chosen freely | |
Solve for c : : | c = -1d +3 |
Inserting shows that the function equals to ist.
