Questions asking the student to prove general properties of differentiable functions—such as monotonicity from functional equations, differentiability of combinations, or involution properties—without a specific formula.
| (A) | The function $f$ is NOT differentiable at $x = 0$ |
| (B) | There is a positive real number $\delta$, such that $f$ is a decreasing function on the interval ( $0 , \delta$ ) |
| (C) | For any positive real number $\delta$, the function $f$ is NOT an increasing function on the interval ( $- \delta , 0$ ) |
| (D) | $x = 0$ is a point of local minima of $f$ |
