Plot the function f (x) = sin x on the domain [, ]. 13. Plot the function f (x) = x3 x2 and g(x) = x2 + 2 on the domain [1, 2] on the same graph. At the point of intersection of these two graphs what does it look the x coordinate is? Use M athematica to nd the exact x value of the point of intersection.
