Question

Which of the two functions below has the largest maximum y-value?

f(x) = -3x^4-14
g(x) = -x^3 + 2

Answer 1

B. g(x)

Explanation:

If you graph both equations in a graphing calc, you should see that the maximum y-value of f(x) is -14 (it's a parabola facing down) while the maximum y-value of g(x) is infinite.
