Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum values of f (x) = x 2 - 2x + 1 on the interval [0, 3]. The vertex of the parabola is at (1,0)
Is this equation most correctly answered by saying:
the Absolute minimum value is 1 (as the x when the equation is set to 0)
or
the absolute minimum is 0 as this is the y value that would be at the minimum y value for any inflection point on the function.
