Question

What is the best approximation for one of the relative minimums of the polynomial function graphed below? O A. (-1.9,-3.7) O B. (1.3,-2.4) O C. (0.3, 0.4) O D. (-1,3,3,4)

Answer 1

We are given the graph of a polynomial and we are asked to approximate a local minimum.

A local minimum is a point in the graph where the values of the function are less than the values of any surrounding point.

We notice that in the given graph this point is the following:

An approximation of the coordinates of this point is:

`\min =(1.3,-2.4)`

Therefore, the right answer is B.
