The one-sided limits of the derivative of a continuous function ff at x=2x=2 are lim⁡x→2−f′(x)=−3,lim⁡x→2+f′(x)=5.\lim_{x\to2^-}f'(x)=-3,\qquad \lim_{x\to2^+}f'(x)=5. Which of the following is most consistent with the behavior of ff at x=2x=2? a) ff has a vertical tangent line at x=2x=2. b) ff has a sharp corner at x=2x=2. c) ff has a removable discontinuity at x=2x=2. d) ff has a local extremum at x=2x=2.
