Determine if the function graphed has a maximum or a minimum value and identify that value.

• maximum at -1

• minimum at -1

• maximum at 4

• minimum at 4

What is the arrow pointing at? How can you use this value to determine the minimum/maximum values?

• The arrow is pointing at the y-intercept. The y value of this point is equivalent to the maximum/minimum 

• The arrow is pointing at the vertex. The x value of this point is equivalent to the maximum/minimum

• The arrow is pointing at the solution. The y value of this point is equivalent to the maximum and the x value is equivalent to the minimum

• The arrow is pointing at the vertex. The y value is equivalent to the minimum/maximum
