    Concave up and down of f (solving inequality)

    1. Homework Statement f(x)=(2x^3+2x^2-5x-2) / 2(x^(2)-1) f''(x)=(-12x^5-24x^3+36x)/(4x^8-16x^6+24x^4-16x^2+4) Find the intervals where f is concave up. 2. The attempt at a solution (I am having trouble interpreting the results at the end or if I've made a mistake somewhere): Attempt at...

    Parametric equations motion problem

    Thank you, I continued working out the times for both x and y after using theta by eliminating the t, but I had to use a graphics calculator to solve for theta. The equation I got to solve theta was: sin(theta)-(4/3)cos(theta)+(8/15)=0. In my course it is calculator free, so is possible to...

    Parametric equations motion problem

    The question states: Two towns A and B are located directly opposite each other on a river 8km wide which flows at a speed 4km/h. A person from town A wants to travel to a town C located 6km up-stream from and on the same side as B. The person travels in a boat with maximum speed 10km/h and...
