Suppose the polynomial function below represents the power generated by a wind turbine.?

X represents the wind speed in meters per second and y represents the kilowatts generated. Interpret ƒ(10). ƒ(x) = 0.08x^3 + x^2 + x + 0.26.

Substitute 10 for each x:
0.08(10)^3 + (10)^2 + (10) + 0.26 = 190.26
So when the wind blows at 10 mph, 190 kW are generated.
