Let gg be the function defined by g(x)={x2−4x+5,x<3,9−2x,x≥3.g(x)= \begin{cases} x^{2}-4x+5, & x<3,\\ 9-2x, & x\ge 3. \end{cases} Which description correctly classifies the behavior of gg at x=3x=3? a) Neither a maximum nor a minimum because g′(x)g'(x) is not defined at x=3x=3. b) Relative maximum because g′(x)g'(x) changes from positive to negative at x=3x=3. c) Relative minimum because g′(x)g'(x) changes from negative to positive at x=3x=3. d) Relative minimum because g′(3)=0g'(3)=0.
