Problem

A twice-differentiable function gg is defined on the closed interval [−2,4][-2,4]. The derivative satisfies g′(x)>0g'(x)>0 on (−2,1)(-2,1) and g′(x)<0g'(x)<0 on (1,4)(1,4), with g′(1)=0g'(1)=0. Which xx-value is most likely to be the location of the absolute maximum of gg on [−2,4][-2,4]? a) x=0x=0 b) x=1x=1 c) x=−2x=-2 d) x=4x=4
