Problem

For a differentiable function gg, it is given that g′(3)=0g'(3)=0 and g′′(3)=0g''(3)=0 while g′′′(3)≠0g'''(3)\neq 0. What can be concluded about the point x=3x=3? (a) g(3)g(3) is a local maximum. (b) The nature of g(3)g(3) cannot be concluded with the given information. (c) x=3x=3 is a point of inflection (no local extremum). (d) g(3)g(3) is a local minimum.
