suppose g is a function for which g(7)=-7, g'(7)=0, g''(7)=7. It follows that (7,-7) is ________
the answer is local minimum but I don't get how g''(7)=7 contributes to get the answer.
@bmvkim56,
The second derivative tells you whether you are looking at a local min or max. Because the second derivative is positive, you are looking at a local minimum.
