Question

the given function $f(x)$ is defined on the interval $-9,9$ and represented by the graph below. for the circled point, select all that apply. answer attempt 1 out of 2 the point is an absolute maximum the point is an absolute minimum the point is a relative minimum

Explanation:

Step1: Recall definitions

An absolute maximum is the highest - value point in the entire domain, an absolute minimum is the lowest - value point in the entire domain, and a relative minimum is a point that is lower than its immediate neighbors.

Step2: Analyze the graph

The circled point is neither the highest point in the domain \([-9,9]\) (so it's not an absolute maximum) nor the lowest point in the domain (so it's not an absolute minimum). Also, it is not lower than its immediate neighbors, so it's not a relative minimum.

Answer:

None of the above options apply.
