Answer 1

Answer:

(c) h(x) has the smallest minimum; it is -6

Step-by-step explanation:

We're comparing three different functions to determine which has the smallest minimum:

H(x) has the minimum -6.

g(x) has a parabolic graph.  Its vertex is at (3, -1) and so its minimum is -1

f(x) is a sinusoidal function with amplitude 2.  The smallest value that 2 sin (3x + pi) can take on is -2, from which we subtract -2, to obtain the minimum -4.

Answer (c) is correct:  The smallesst minimum is -6 and that is for function h(x).
