The points (0,5) and (4,5) lie on the graph so f(t) = 5 when t = 0 and t = 4 c) Find the intercepts of the graph. List the function values given by the intercepts The t-intercept is ( -2, 0) and the f- intercept is ( 0, 5) ; f(-2) = 0 , f(0) = 5 d) Find the maximum and minimum values of f(t) The highest point is (3, 6) and the lowest is ( -4, -1) , so f(t) has a maximum value of 6 and a Minimum value of – 1 e) For what value(s) of t does f take on its maximum and minimum values? The maximum occurs for t = 3 The minimum occurs for t = - 4 f) On what intervals is the function increasing ? Decreasing ? The function increasing on the interval ( - 4, 3 ) and decreasing on the interval ( 3, 5 )
