Transcript text: 1. The sketch of a function $f$ is shown below. Its domain is $[-2,2.5]$. Give the solution of the inequality $f(x)>-1$ in interval form. You may need to estimate.
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Identify the portions of the graph where f(x) > -1
Visually inspect the graph and locate the sections where the function lies above the horizontal line y = -1.
Step 2: Determine the x-values corresponding to these portions
The graph is above y = -1 approximately in the intervals [-2, -0.5] and [2, 2.5]. At x=-0.5 and x=2, f(x) appears to be very close to -1.
