### Comparing Functions: A Detailed Analysis

---

##### Compare the following functions:

- **Function \( f(x) \)**:
\[
f(x) = -4 \sin(3x - \pi) + 2
\]
This function represents a sinusoidal wave modified by a sine term with amplitude of -4, a frequency coefficient of 3, and a phase shift of \(\pi\), shifted vertically by 2 units.

- **Function \( g(x) \)**:
- Graph Description:
The provided graph of \( g(x) \) appears to be a parabola opening upwards. The vertex of the parabola looks to be at the lowest point on the graph.

- Critical Points (approx):
- Vertex: The vertex, which appears to be the minimum point, is at approximately \(x = 3\) and \(y = -5\).

- **Function \( h(x) \)**:
- Table of Values:
\[
\begin{array}{|c|c|}
\hline
x & y \\
\hline
-2 & 14 \\
\hline
-1 & 9 \\
\hline
0 & 6 \\
\hline
1 & 5 \\
\hline
2 & 6 \\
\hline
3 & 9 \\
\hline
4 & 14 \\
\hline
\end{array}
\]

From the table, we see that \( h(x) \) has its minimum value at \( x = 1 \) and \( y = 5 \).

---

##### Question: Which function has the smallest minimum?
- \( f(x) \)
- \( g(x) \)
- \( h(x) \)
- All three functions have the same minimum

By analyzing the functions:

- \( f(x) \) will have a minimum based on its periodic nature and the amplitude of the sine function, which can be calculated to be at \( y = -4 + 2 = -2 \).
- \( g(x) \) obtains a minimum at around \( y = -5 \), as seen from the vertex in the graph.
- \( h(x) \) has its minimum at \( y =
