Does this graph have an absolute maximum?
Yes, it has a highest point!
No, it has many high spots, but not a "highest" spot.
yes
well, I have been wrong so many times before.

If a function has a derivative that is positive, what does that tell you?
The function is increasing
The function is decreasing
Derivative means the same thing as
slope of the tangent line
slope of the normal line
slope of the secant line
instantaneous acceleration
For what values of x does f(x) have a horizontal tangent?
-3.5, 3.5
-5, 5
there are no horizontal tangents
-5, 0, 5
According to the graph, at the point x=-2, is f(x) increasing or decreasing and why?
At x=-2 f(x) is increasing because the graph has a positive slope.
At x=-2 f(x) is decreasing because the graph has a positive slope.
At x=-2 f(x) is decreasing because the graph lies below the x-axis.
At x=-2 f(x) is decreasing because the graph has a negative slope
