Which sign change of dydx\dfrac{dy}{dx} as xx passes through the critical value cc guarantees that the point (c, y(c))(c,\,y(c)) is a relative (local) maximum of yy with respect to xx? (a) dydx\dfrac{dy}{dx} changes from negative to positive (b) dydx\dfrac{dy}{dx} changes from positive to 00 (c) dydx\dfrac{dy}{dx} changes from positive to negative (d) dydx\dfrac{dy}{dx} is positive on both sides of cc
