Problem

A continuous function ff satisfies f′(x)>0f'(x)>0 for x<2x<2, f′(2)=0f'(2)=0, and f′(x)>0f'(x)>0 for x>2x>2. What can you conclude about x=2x=2? (a) x=2x=2 is a point of local minimum (b) x=2x=2 is neither a maximum nor a minimum (c) x=2x=2 is the global minimum (d) x=2x=2 is a stationary point of inflection
