Let gg be a differentiable function whose first derivative g′(x)g'(x) is increasing for −2<x<1-2<x<1, attains a maximum at x=1x=1, and is decreasing for 1<x<41<x<4. Which of the following must be true about g′′g'' at x=1x=1? (a) g′′(1)=0g''(1)=0 and changes sign from positive to negative at x=1x=1. (b) g′′(1)=0g''(1)=0 and changes sign from negative to positive at x=1x=1. (c) g′′(1)>0g''(1)>0. (d) g′′(1)<0g''(1)<0.
