HI!!

OpenStudy (misty1212):

did you get the first derivative? it is a polynomial so it should be pretty easy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4x^3+4x

OpenStudy (freckles):

I think the question is incomplete

OpenStudy (misty1212):

ok so now we want to know where it is positive and negative

OpenStudy (misty1212):

lol so it is! i read "increasing" but it could be anything huh?

OpenStudy (freckles):

but yeah it is probably thinking about f is increasing or decreasing

OpenStudy (freckles):

the question thinks for itself lol

OpenStudy (misty1212):

find the open interval on where the function is itself

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would i put it = to zero to find the open interval

OpenStudy (misty1212):

lol no silly if you put the derivative equal to zero and solve you will get a number or two, not an interval reread the question in the book or on line or wherever it is and find out what it is asking the thing you wrote above is not the question, it is missing something

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that the question my teacher gave me . no more information

OpenStudy (misty1212):

use the first derivative test to determine the open intervals on which f is ....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah that all she gave me

OpenStudy (misty1212):

then you can't do it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i will ask tommorow but thank you for the lep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

help

OpenStudy (misty1212):

you sure there is not some word there like "increasing" maybe?
