Maxima and Minima
- Answers may vary
- Answers will vary
- No; answers will vary
- Since the absolute maximum is the function (output) value rather than the x value, the answer is no; answers will vary
- When a=0
- Absolute minimum at 3; Absolute maximum at −2.2; local minima at −2, 1; local maxima at −1, 2
- Absolute minima at −2, 2; absolute maxima at −2.5, 2.5; local minimum at 0; local maxima at −1, 1
