Step-by-step explanation

An absolute maximum point is a point where the function obtains its greatest possible value.

Similarly, an absolute minimum point is a point where the function obtains its least possible value.

Step 1

check the graph of g:

The y- coordinates (output) at the highest and lowest points are called the absolute maximum and absolute minimum

To locate absolute maxima and minima from a graph, we need to observe the graph to determine where the graph attains it highest and lowest points on the domain of the function

so, for G


\begin{gathered} \text{maximum}=\text{ None ( the graph continues raising up)} \\ \text{minimum}=-3 \end{gathered}

Step 2

Now, for h


\begin{gathered} \text{ Minimum; -5} \\ \text{ ma}\xi mum\colon5 \end{gathered}

I hope this helps you
