Which function is negative for the interval [-1,1] ?

Option (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Option (1)

In the interval [-1, 1] Or -1 ≤ x ≤ 1, value of the function will be represented by the y-values.

Since, the graph is below x-axis in the interval -1 ≤ x ≤ 0.5, function will be negative.

And in the interval 0.5 ≤ x ≤ 1, graph is above the x-axis, function will be positive.

Option (2)

In this option, graph is below the x-axis in the interval [-1, 1].

Therefore, the given graph is negative in this interval.

Option (3)

In this graph, function is negative and positive both in the interval -1 ≤ x ≤ 1.

Option (4)

In this graph function is completely above the x-axis in the interval -1 ≤ x ≤ 1.

So this function is positive in the interval [-1, 1].

Therefore, Option (2) will be the answer.
