Provide an appropriate response.Imagine there is a function for which f'(x) = 0 for all x. Does such a function exist? Is it reasonable to say that all values of x are critical points for such a function? Is it reasonable to say that all values of x are extreme values for such a function. Give reasons for your answer.

What will be an ideal response?


Yes. the function is a flat line f(x) = C. One may say that every value of x is a critical point since critical points are by definition points where  But none of these points correspond to extreme values.
