Q. 21 - Precalculus Enhanced with Graphing Utilities

Question

Select a setting so that each given point will lie within the viewing window.

$\left(-10,5\right),(3,-2),(4,-1)$

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The setting so that each given point lie within the viewing window is

$$\begin{gathered} X_{min}=-11 \\ X_{max}=5 \\ {Y}_{min}=-3 \\ {Y}_{max}=6 \\ {X}_{scl}=1 \\ {Y}_{scl}=1 \end{gathered}$$

Step 1 . Given information

The points are $\left(-10,5\right),(3,-2),(4,-1).$

Step 2. Find the settings for viewing window.

By observing given points,

The minimum value of $X$ is$-10$

The maximum value of $X$ is $4$

The minimum value of $Y$ is$-2$

The maximum value of $Y$ is $5.$

Take each unit on the x-axis is 1 and the y-axis is 1.

Write the setting for the viewing window,

$$\begin{gathered} X_{min}=-11 \\ X_{max}=5 \\ {Y}_{min}=-3 \\ {Y}_{max}=6 \\ {X}_{scl}=1 \\ {Y}_{scl}=1 \end{gathered}$$

Each setting must be greater than the given values.
