The derivative of a differentiable function gg satisfies g′(x)>0g'(x)>0 on the intervals (−4,0)(-4,0) and (2,5)(2,5) and g′(x)<0g'(x)<0 on the interval (0,2)(0,2). Which of the following best describes the behavior of gg on (−4,5)(-4,5)? a) gg is increasing on (−4,0)(-4,0) and decreasing on (0,5)(0,5). b) gg is decreasing on (−4,0)(-4,0) and increasing on (0,2)(0,2) and decreasing on (2,5)(2,5). c) gg is increasing on (−4,0)(-4,0) and (2,5)(2,5) and decreasing on (0,2)(0,2). d) gg is increasing on (−4,2)(-4,2) and decreasing on (2,5)(2,5).
