Question

anonymous · Answer

Good question. I guess its semantics to a certain extent. I am not sure of the accepted answer though. How does your text define absolute max?

anonymous · Answer

Sounds good...I have an answer from a text on my shelf if you are interested. @wakoff

Let c be a number in the Domain D of a function f. Then f(c) is the absolute maximum value of f on D if $$f(c)gef(x)$$

anonymous · Answer

oh

anonymous · Answer

*$$f(c) \ge f(x)$$ for all x in D.

This means as long as it is greater than OR equal to all other values. So it would be possible to have more than one absolute max or min.
