will be increasing on the intervals where

and decreasing wherever

. Local extrema occur when

and the sign of

changes to either side of that point.

is positive when

is between -4 and some number between -2 and -1, and also 2 (exclusive) and 4, so you can estimate that

is increasing on the intervals [-4, -2] and (2, 4].

is negative when

is between some number between -2 and -1, up to some number less than 2. So

is decreasing on the interval [-1, 1].
You then have two possible cases for extrema occurring. The sign of

changes for some

between -2 and -1, and again to either side of

.
Answer:
25/14
Step-by-step explanation:
we are given a vector
whose
x-component is -24.5
so, 
y-component is 31.5
so, 
Magnitude:
we can use formula

we can plug values


Direction:
we can use direction formula

now, we can plug values

Answer:
is the required factorization of f(x).
Step-by-step explanation:
To factor the expression we must first group the terms and then take out common from these groups

Taking
common from first group and the 16 from second group we get:

Now, to factor in complex from we have to break term 

As, 
Also using identity 
On solving

is the required factorization of f(x).
