Question
What is the minimum value of 𝑓(𝑥)=|−(𝑥−ℎ2)+𝑘|−𝑞 for each set of postive real numbers, h, k, and q?
Solution
The function f(x) = |-(x-h^2)+k| - q is a transformation of the absolute value function. The absolute value function always returns a non-negative value, so the minimum value of the absolute value function is always 0.
However, in this case, the function is shifted vertically by -q and horizontally by h^2. The minimum value of the function will occur at x = h^2, and the value at that point will be |-(h^2-h^2)+k| - q = |k| - q.
Since k and q are positive real numbers, the minimum value of the function will be |k| - q. If k > q, the minimum value will be a positive number (k - q). If k = q, the minimum value will be 0. If k < q, the minimum value will be a negative number (k - q).
