Problem

A twice-differentiable function ff satisfies f′(1)=0f'(1)=0 and f′(4)=0f'(4)=0. Additional information is f′′(1)=−3f''(1)=-3 and f′′(4)=5f''(4)=5. Which of the following statements about ff is true? (a) ff has a local minimum at x=1x=1 and a local maximum at x=4x=4.​​ (b) ff has inflection points at both x=1x=1 and x=4x=4.​​ (c) ff has a local maximum at x=1x=1 and a local minimum at x=4x=4.​​ (d) ff has a local maximum at x=1x=1 and an inflection point at x=4x=4.​​
