Which of the following statements are true for f(x)? f(x) always has a critical point on [a, b] f(x) attains an absolute maximum on [a. b] f(x) attains an absolute minimum on [a. b] f(x) may has no critical value on [a, b]. If x=c is a critical value, then f(c) is either an absolute maximum or an absolute minimum. If f(c) is an absolute maximum, then x =c is a critical point
