Respuesta :

Answer: Choice D.  (2, 1)

Reason:

See the screenshot below. I used GeoGebra to plot the points.

The sub group of points D, E, F form a bowl shaped region. Imagine a small parabola passing through these points. Point E is either the local min or very close to it. This is because point E is at the bottom of the bowl shape.
