Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Transcription for Educational Website:**
The graph of function \( f(x) \) is shown below. At which value of \( x \) is the derivative of the function equal to \(-4\)?
**Graph Description:**
- The graph displays a parabola that opens upwards.
- The vertex of the parabola is located at approximately \((1, 1)\).
- The parabola is symmetric about the vertical line \(x = 1\).
- The graph passes through points approximately \((-1, 4)\), \((3, 4)\), and \((1, 1)\).
- The grid is marked with horizontal and vertical lines at intervals of 1 unit.
To determine when the derivative \( f'(x) \) equals \(-4\), observe the slope of the tangent line to the curve. At the point where the slope is \(-4\), the derivative of the function has this value. This occurs on the left side of the vertex, likely between \(x = 0\) and \(x = -1\).

Transcribed Image Text:**Question:**
Select the correct answer below:
- \( \bigcirc \) \( x = -1 \)
- \( \bigcirc \) \( x = 0 \)
- \( \bigcirc \) \( x = 1 \)
- \( \bigcirc \) \( x = 2 \)
- \( \bigcirc \) \( x = 3 \)
