Question

a. minimum at (4, 8)
b. when the bird is 4 feet away from the first fence post, it reaches its minimum height of 8 feet.
c. minimum at (2, 4)
d. when the bird is 2 feet away from the first fence post, it reaches its minimum height of 4 feet.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the graph concept

The minimum of a graph is the lowest - point. In a height - distance graph, the coordinates are in the form (distance, height).

Step2: Identify the minimum point

Looking at the options, we need to find the correct distance and height values for the minimum. If we assume the minimum occurs at a certain distance from the first fence post and has a certain height.

Answer:

If we assume the correct minimum point is at (4, 8) (where 4 is the distance from the first fence post and 8 is the height in feet), then the correct statements are:
A. Minimum at (4, 8)
B. When the bird is 4 feet away from the first fence post, it reaches its minimum height of 8 feet.
