(a) Give an explicit formula for a function which has a critical point which is neither a maximum nor a minimum. (b) Give explicit formulae for three different functions all of which are equal to their own derivatives. (c) Give an explicit formula for a function whose derivative is always positive on its domain, but whose second derivative is always negative.

A function has a maximum at a point x if a. The first derivative is zero and the second derivative is positive b. The first derivative is negative and the second derivative is 0 c. The first and second derivatives of the function evaluated at x are zero d. The first derivative is zero and the second derivative is negative
