The slope of the curve at (x , y)
=3x^2.
Therefore the curve must be the premtive of dy/dx =
3x^2.
So the curve is y = Integral
(3x^2)dx
y = (3x^3)/4+ c, Or y = x^3+c ,where c is a
constant. Since this curve passes through (1 , -1), the coordinates (1 , -1) should
satisfy y = x^3+c.
-1 =
1^3+c.
c = -1-1 = -2
Therfore
the required curve is y = x^3 -2.
