Question

find the absolute minimum of f on -9,8. select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer boxes to complete your choice. a. the absolute minimum of f is f( )=( ) (type integers or fractions.) b. there is no absolute minimum.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the graph

Examine the function values on the interval [-9,8].

Step2: Identify the lowest - point

Locate the lowest y - value of the function on the given interval. From the graph, we can see that the lowest y - value occurs at a certain x - value within the interval [-9,8].

Answer:

A. The absolute minimum of f is f(<value>) = <value> (Since the specific x - value and y - value are not clear from the provided image for exact input, but the process is to identify the lowest y - value on the interval [-9,8] and write it in the form f(x)=y where x is in [-9,8] and y is the minimum value)
