Please Help me out...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\large \bf 2x^2+\frac{1}{x}>0\] Find the intervals of x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

add

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh wow this is going to suck

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\large \bf \frac{2x^3+1}{x}>0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{2x^3+1}{x}>0\] is a start

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then we know the sign changes at \(x=0\) for the denominator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for the numerator it changes at \(-\frac{1}{\sqrt[3]{2}}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please show your work

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is nice and ugly but no matter

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[2x^3+1=0\\ 2x^3=-1\\ x^3=-\frac{1}{2}\\ ...\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then,here i stuck

OpenStudy (anonymous):

take the cube root and get \(x=-\frac{1}{\sqrt[3]{2}}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah!!! thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh, you mean stuck as to finding the answer to the original question? we are not done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what we are not done mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you still have to solve where it is positive, your answer should be intervals (2 intervals)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah... i can do that...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k you want me to check, or is it obvious?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

am i right or not? answer=\[\large \bf (-\infty,\frac{-1}{\sqrt[3]{2}})U(0,\infty)\]
