Question

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?

Answer 1

Answer:

  f(x) and h(x) have the same maximum value: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum value of f(x) is 3 at (π, 3).

The maximum value of g(x) is -2 at (-3, -2).

The maximum value of h(x) is 3 at (0, 3).

Both f(x) and h(x) have the same (greatest) maximum value.
