Given the following properties of a function $f(x)$:
$(i)$ $f(x)$ is continuous and defined for all real numbers.
$(ii)$ $f'(-5) = 0$; $f'(2)$ is not defined and $f'(4) = 0$.
$(iii)$ $(-5, 12)$ is a point on the graph of $f(x)$.
$(iv)$ $f''(2)$ is undefined,but $f''(x)$ is negative everywhere else.
$(v)$ The signs of $f'(x)$ are given by the following number line:
$f'(x)$ is positive for $x < -5$,negative for $-5 < x < 2$,positive for $2 < x < 4$,and negative for $x > 4$.
On the possible graph of $y = f(x)$,we have:

  • A
    $x = -5$ is a point of relative minima.
  • B
    $x = 2$ is a point of relative maxima.
  • C
    $x = 4$ is a point of relative minima.
  • D
    The graph of $y = f(x)$ must have a geometrical sharp corner at $x = 2$.
