1: $$g(y) = (y-6)^{2*3}$$

2: $$g(8) = 64$$

Statement 1: $$g(y) = something^{even}$$, so for any value of $$y$$ except $$6$$; $$g(y)$$ will yield a value greater than $$0$$. at $$y=6$$, $$g(y)$$ will be $$0$$ and hence the lowest. Sufficient

Statement 2: Does not provide the equation for $$g(y)$$. Insufficient

Option A
