Question

1. consider the graph below. 1a does the function have an absolute maximum or minimum? select all that apply. a yes, it has an absolute maximum. b no, it does not have either. c yes, it has an absolute minimum.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the behavior of the function as \(x\to\pm\infty\)

As \(x\to-\infty\), \(y\to-\infty\). As \(x\to+\infty\), \(y\to+\infty\).

Step2: Check for absolute maximum and minimum

Since \(y\to-\infty\) as \(x\to-\infty\), there is no absolute minimum. Since \(y\to+\infty\) as \(x\to+\infty\), there is no absolute maximum.

Answer:

B. No, it does not have either.
