hello, I need to solve this task find values of a when function is Increasing from -∞ to +∞ (real numbers plurality) function is: y=f(x)=1/2*x^3+a*x^2+x-7 firstible i found derivative f'(x)=3/2*x^2+2ax+1 when I showed what disertive has to be bigger than 0 3/2*x^2+2ax+1>0 how to continue or I'm doing it wrong ? please help me as soon as possible.

any has ideas how to do it ? inequality should always be greater than 0 with all x values but how to find a values because i need to write them not in formula

OpenStudy (princeharryyy):

put f'(x) = 0 solve for x, check using f''(x) whether function increases r decreases at that point. if f''(x) > 0 at that point function decreases else increases.

but how to solve for x then in f'(x) is a, sorry for dumb questions but I'm not veri good at this.
