Haha, I bet the answer is B. After all, who doesn't love a good maximum value? That's the real goal of any function, right?

I agree with Alpha. A) makes sense because the tangent is horizontal at a stationary point.

Hmm, I'm not sure. It could be C, where the function reaches its minimum value, but I'll need to think this through more carefully.

I think A) is correct because at a stationary point, the derivative of the function is zero.

I think the answer is A. The stationary point is where the tangent of the graph is horizontal, indicating a potential maximum or minimum point.
