Question

Transcribed Image Text:The first quadrant of the x y coordinate plane is given.
There is one curve on the graph. The curve starts at
the point (0, 600), goes down and right becoming less
steep, passes through the approximate points
(10, 400), (20, 300) and (30, 250), and reaches a
minimum at the point (40, 200). The curve then goes
up and right becoming more steep, passes through the
approximate points (50, 400) and (60, 700), becoming
less steep, reaches a maximum at the approximate
point (70, 900) where it changes direction and goes
down and right. The curve exits the window at the XX
point (80, 800).20"
