The x-intercepts are indeed -1 and 1.
The increasing intervals are listed as (-1, 0) u (1, infinity) not because -1 and 1 are not included points of the function, but because the function is not differentiable in those points, so you can't tell whether the function is increasing or decreasing there.
Answer:
the first five terms are
a1 = 6
a2 = 24
a3 = 60
a4 = 120
a5 = 210
Step-by-step explanation:
the experission used to find the five terms is
an = n3+ 3n2+ 2n
(8x + 2y) - (7x + 2y) = 30 - 24
X = 6
