help explain this! http://prntscr.com/1atc9u

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am getting A as the answer is that right?

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

I think so...the minimums are the bottoms of the bowls, so to speak, and the lowest bowl is between x=5 and x = 6, and the highest bowl is between x = 0 and x= 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so am i correct?

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

I said: "I think so" (and then went on to explain my reasoning). Is there some part of that which isn't clear? :-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no everything is clear but your "think so" seems that you are doubtful and that is confusing me :P

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

Okay, get out the bottle of white-out, paint over the words "I think so" and write in "I think A is the right answer"

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

But you need to be the one thinking of the answer, and confident that you can make a compelling argument for why it is correct...

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

It may still be wrong, of course, but if you can explain in a logical manner why you think it is correct, you have a good chance of being right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my logic is the same as yours and so i 'think' it is correct and i posted this question here to confirm whether what i think is right or not .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what do you say @whpalmer4 ?
