What does your textbook say about ) be a critical point of function f x?

( ) that is continuous on an open interval I containing c . If f x ( ) is differentiable on the interval, except possibly at c , then f c ( ) can be classified as follows:(when moving across I from left to right) (i) If ′ ( ) x changes from negative to positive at c , then f x ( ) has a local minimum f ( c ). (ii) If ′ ( ) x changes from positive to negative at c , then f x ( ) has a local maximum f ( c ). (iii) If ′ ( ) x is positive on both sides of c , or negative on both sides of c then f x ( ) has neither a local minimum nor a local minimum.
