Answer:
-74
Step-by-step explanation:
Graph the function. See attached picture. Between the interval where -4 > x < 0, the graph rises up to a peak and descends back down when x = 0. This means the minimum value will be where x = -4.
Substitute x = -4 into the equation.
f(-4) = (-4)^3 -3(-4)^2 - 9(-4) + 2
f(-4) = -64 -3(16) +36 + 2
f(-4) = -64 - 48 + 36 + 2
f(-4) = -74
Parallel=same slope
Y=mx+b
Sub in the slope and point to solve for b
2=-6(-1)+b
2=6+b
2-6=b
-4=b
The equation is y=-6x-4; the answer is B
