A curve has equation y=f(x)y = f(x)y=f(x).
It is given that f′(a)=0f'(a) = 0f′(a)=0 and f′′(a)<0f''(a) < 0f′′(a)<0.
Identify the nature of the stationary point of the curve at x=ax = ax=a.
Tick one box.
A minimum point
A maximum point
A minimum point with a horizontal tangent
The nature cannot be determined
