Question
Consider all lines in the ry-plane that pass through both the origin and a point (x, y) on the graph of y = æ² – x + 16 for 1<x < 8. The figure above shows one such line and the graph of
y = x2 – x + 16. Which of the following statements is true?
A
The line with minimum slope passes through the graph of y = x? - x + 16 at a = 1.
B
The line with minimum slope passes through the graph of y = x2 - x + 16 at a = 4.
The line with minimum slope passes through the graph of y = x?
x + 16 at a = 7.
D
The line with minimum slope passes through the graph of y = x? – x + 16 at x = 8.
