Transcribed Image Text:The text from the image is as follows:
"The slope graph of \( f \) has a [Select] at \( x = 0 \)."
There are no graphs or diagrams provided in the image.

Transcribed Image Text:Consider this graph of the function \( f \) to answer the questions below:
### Explanation of the Graph:
The graph depicts a function \( f(x) \) over the range \( x = -9 \) to \( x = 9 \).
- **Endpoints**:
- As \( x \to -9 \), the function continues to rise.
- At \( x = -6 \), there is an open circle on the graph indicating that the function \( f(x) \) is not defined at \( x = -6 \).
- **Key Points**:
- The function increases sharply from the left, reaching a maximum at \( x = -3 \) where \( f(x) = 5 \).
- Post maximum, the function decreases, crossing the x-axis at \( x = 0 \).
- The function then reaches a local minimum at \( x = 3 \) where \( f(x) = -2 \).
- After the minimum, the function increases again, crossing the x-axis at approximately \( x = 5 \).
- **Arrow Indicators**:
- On the left, the graph is denoted with an arrow pointing left, suggesting that the function continues indefinitely in the negative x-direction.
- On the right, an arrow points downward, indicating the function continues to decrease beyond \( x = 7 \).
The graph visually represents the different behaviors and critical points of the function \( f(x) \).
