URGENT!! NEED HELP ASAP!!! WILL FAN AND MEDAL IF YOU HELP Compare the functions shown below: f(x) cosine graph with points at 0, negative 1 and pi over 2, 1 and pi, 3 and 3 pi over 2, 1 and 2 pi, negative 1 g(x) x y −6 −11 −5 −6 −4 −3 −3 −2 −2 −3 −1 −6 0 −11 h(x) = 2 cos x + 1 Which function has the greatest maximum y-value?

FOR F(x)

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

here is the graph of h(x):

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

so, you have to compare these values: minimum value of f(x), minimum value of g(x), and minimum value of h(x)

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

hint: the minimum value of g(x) is -11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the max for g(x) is -2

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

yes!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for f(x) it's 3 and g(x) 3?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

the minimum value of f(x) is -1, and the minimum value of h(x) is also -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh ok, the question is asking for max value though

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

In that case, we have: max value of f(x)=3 max value of g(x) = -2 max value of h(x)= 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer would be d, f(x) and h(x)

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

yes! correct!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you!! :)
