Question

PLEASE HELP!Which of the following statements correctly describes how to tell when a function is positive over a given interval.

Question 5 options:




The functions values are greater than 0 over the interval.


The functions values are less than 0 over the interval.

Answer 1

Answer: The functions values are greater than 0 over the interval.

Explanation:

To tell if a function is positive over a given interval, see if it's below the x-axis or if it's under (since the x-axis represents 0).

• If it's below, it's less than zero.
• If it is above, it's greater than zero.

If the interval is above the x-axis, it's positive (greater), and if it's below, it's negative (less).
