Which is a possible turning point for the continuous function f(x)?
(-3,-4)
(-2,-1)
(0,-5)
(1,8)

B. (-2,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

A continuous function is one that do not discontinue, and a little change in its input has no effect on its result. This is one major difference between continuous and discontinuous functions. Both functions has major applications in calculus.

The turning point of a function can be obtained by determining where  it is increasing or decreasing.

In the given question, though there is no detailed information about the continuous function, but the probable turning point is (-2, -1).

area of part 1:

a1=base*height/2=(8+2)*(8-2-2-1)/2=10*3/2=15 ft^2

area of part 2:

a2=length*width=(8+2)*1=10 ft2

area of part 3:

a3=length*width=8*2=16 ft2

total shaded area : a1+a2+a3=41 ft2

total area of the reactangle : a=16*8=128 ft2

total area of the nonshaded region : 128-41=87 ft2
