Suppose the function d(t) is differentiable for all real numbers. Which of the following statements proves there is a relative maximum at t = 3?
a. d ' < 0 when t < 3 and d ' > 0 when t > 3
b. d ' > 0 when t < 3 and d ' < 0 when t > 3
c. d ' = 0 and d " = 0 when t = 3
d. d ' = 0 and d " ≠ 0 when t = 3
a. d ' < 0 when t < 3 and d ' > 0 when t > 3
b. d ' > 0 when t < 3 and d ' < 0 when t > 3
c. d ' = 0 and d " = 0 when t = 3
d. d ' = 0 and d " ≠ 0 when t = 3
-
a) This shows that at t = 3 is a min.
b) A consequence of the first derivative test, this shows at t = 3 is a max
c) This shows that t = 3 is an infection point
d) This is impossible
Hence (b) is correct
