Question

The question has been rejected previously. I am not sure if this would help but the correct answer is D concave.

If you cannot provide a proof; please solve using a satisfying example. However, it would be huge help if you could provide a proof. It can definitely be done using the geometric definition of concavity.

I sincerely request you to not reject it again.
