The derivative f′f' of a twice-differentiable function ff has a relative maximum at x=5x=5. Which statement about the graph of ff at x=5x=5 is most accurate? a) ff has a relative maximum at x=5x=5 because f′f' changes from positive to negative there. b) ff has a horizontal tangent at x=5x=5 since f′(5)=0f'(5)=0.},{ c) ff has a point of inflection at x=5x=5 because f′′(5)=0f''(5)=0 and its concavity changes. d) ff is concave down on both sides of x=5x=5 because f′′(5)=0f''(5)=0 and f′f' is decreasing there.
