+# Useful functions
+
+The following mathematical functions are useful for smooth movements of two-dimensional objects.
+
+## Smooth transition from origin to point
+
+### Function
+
+```math
+f(x) = \frac{-2k}{n^3} * x^3 + \frac{3k}{n^2} * x^2
+```
+

+
+### Description
+
+Graph starts at origin `(0,0)` and ends at `(n,k)` with a smooth transition between these points.
+
+## Slight variation of the first function
+
+### Function
+
+```math
+f(x) = \frac{2k}{n^3} * x^3 - \frac{3k}{n^2} * x^2 + k
+```
