Answer:
B and C
Step-by-step explanation:
Minimum and Maximum points occur when the gradient of the function is equal to 0. Graphically this looks like a bend such that the function dips from decreasing to increasing (the gradient goes form being negative to positive) and vice versa.
A minimum point occurs where all the nearby values are higher than that of the point in question.
A maximum point occurs where all the nearby points are lower than the point in question.
By looking at the graph, there is a maximum point around (4.5, 1.5) which is consistent with B but not A (since A talks about a minimum point)
By looking at the graph, there is a minimum point around (0.5, 1.5) which is consistent with C.
