The function g(x)=xg(x)=\sqrt{x} is defined on the closed interval [0,9][0,9]. Which of the following best describes the differentiability of gg at x=0x=0? a) gg is differentiable at x=0x=0 because the right-hand derivative exists and equals 00. b) gg is differentiable at x=0x=0 because the one-sided derivatives both exist and are equal to ∞\infty. c) gg is not differentiable at x=0x=0 because the right-hand derivative is unbounded and the left-hand derivative is undefined. d) gg is not differentiable at x=0x=0 because the left-hand derivative is undefined even though the right-hand derivative equals 00.
