Question

Here is a graph of the function g.4-3-2-1Use the graph to find the following.If there is more than one answer, separate them with commas.(a) All local maximum values of g:(6) All values at which g has a local maximut:X

Answer 1

Graphically, the local maximum can be localized by spotting the "highest value" inside a range. A local maximum point on a function is a point (x,y) on the graph of the function whose y coordinate is larger than all other y coordinates on the graph at points "close to'' (x,y).

We can see that in our g function at x= -2 and x = 3, with respective values y = 3 and y = -1.

The answer for item (a) is: -1, 3

For item (b): -2, 3
