2.4 Connecting Differentiability and Continuity: Determining When Derivatives Do and Do Not Exist question 1

[Maximum number: 1]

36. If g is a differentiable function with g(1)=4 and g(1)=3g^{\prime}(1)=3, which of the following statements could be false?

A

limx1+g(x)=limx1g(x)\lim _{x \rightarrow 1^{+}} g(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow 1^{-}} g(x)

B

limx1g(x)=3\lim _{x \rightarrow 1} g^{\prime}(x)=3

C

limx1g(x)=4\lim _{x \rightarrow 1} g(x)=4

D

limh0g(1+h)g(1)h=3\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{g(1+h)-g(1)}{h}=3
