On a coordinate plane, a curved line labeled f of x with a minimum value of (1.9, negative 5.7) and a maximum value of (0, 2), crosses the x-axis at (negative 0.7, 0), (0.76, 0), and (2.5, 0), and crosses the y-axis at (0, 2). Which statement is true about the graphed function?

F(x) < 0 over the intervals (-∞, -0.7) and (0.76, 2.5).
F(x) > 0 over the intervals (-∞, -0.7) and (0.76, 2.5).
F(x) < 0 over the intervals (-0.7, 0.76) and (2.5, ∞).
F(x) > 0 over the intervals (-0.7, 0.76) and (0.76, ∞

F(x) < 0 over the intervals (-∞, -0.7) and (0.76, 2.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum value of the curve = (1.9, -5.7),

The maximum value = (0, 2)

The point the function crosses the x-axis (the x-intercept) = (-0.7, 0), (0.76, 0), and (2.5, 0)

The point the function crosses the y-axis (the y-intercept) = (0, 2)

The given points can be plotted using MS Excel, from which we have;

F(x) is less than 0 over the interval from x = -∞, to x = -0.7, and the interval from x = 0.76 to x = 2.5

The correct option is therefore, F(x) < 0 over the intervals (-∞, -0.7) and (0.76, 2.5)

step-by-step explanation:

given the function as;

write the equation replacing f(x) with y

form   and fill a table containing values of y with corresponding values of x

you can take a range for   values of x as -3≤x≤3

solving for x=-3

for x=-2

repeat the same procedure to get the values of y for the remaining ,x=-1 to x=3

plot the values of y against values   of x and obtain the following graph
