Answer 3

@scarlett_feathers Do you understand what they mean by local minimum values?

Answer 4

not a clue

Answer 5

Okay so a local minimum just means a trough in the graph, or a local depression. For example, coordinates (-1,-2) is such a point.

Answer 6

Tell me if you understand or if you require further clarification regarding this definition

Answer 7

No not because they are negative. Look at the graph shape itself. Coordinates (-1,-2) is a depression in the graph, the bottom of a crater.

Answer 8

because they are negative and are the lowest point of the line?

Answer 9

Nothing to do with negative values. It is because it is the very bottom of a crater.

Answer 10

oh okay
so what about the global minimun

Answer 11

Okay so a global minimum would be the minimum value of the entire graph, from
\[-\infty \le x \le \infty\]

Answer 12

From this graph itself it is not possible to tell the global minimum because:
(1) The whole graph is not plotted out
(2) The equation of the graph is not given

Answer 13

so then what do i put for the global min?

Answer 14

There is no question asking you about the global minimum. There are only questions asking you for the local minimum values of g and the values at which g has a local minimum.

Answer 15

To help you out a bit more:

Local minimum values of g - Values on the y-axis where there is a local minimum
Values at which g has a local minimum - Values on the x-axis where there is a local minimum

You should be able to answer the question from here.
