Assume h′ is continuous on each open interval (4.8,5) and (5,5.2) and that these values accurately reflect the local trend.
(1) Part 1: (a) Estimate the one-sided limits of h′(x) as x approaches 5 from the left and from the right.
(2) Part 2: (b) Based solely on the derivative information, determine whether h is differentiable at x=5. State your conclusion and justify it using the definition of differentiability.
(3) Part 3: (c) If h is not differentiable at x=5, classify the nature of the graph’s behavior at that point (sharp corner, cusp, or vertical tangent). Support your classification with reasoning tied to the magnitudes and signs of the derivative values in the table.
