1² – 2r + 1 (4) Consider the function g(x) = x - 5 (a) Compute the derivative gʻ(r), then distribute and simplify the mumerator as much as possible (this will help with part b). You do not need to simplify the denominator. (b) Use the first derivative test to identify which critical numbers correspond to local max- imums and local minimums. Hint: Remember, critical numbers also occur where the derivative is undefined
