Consider something like a parabola.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[ f(x)=ax^2+bx+c\\ f'(x) = 2ax+b \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[ f'(1)=0=2a+b \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So that means \(2a=-b\)\[ f'(x) = -bx+b \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We can just let \(c=0\).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We can let \(a=1\), and then \(b=-2\).
