Q. The derivative of a function h is given by h′(x)=x2−10sin(x).On which intervals is the graph of h increasing?Use a graphing calculator.Choose 1 answer:(B) (−∞,−3.837] and [−1.977,1.306](C) (−∞,0] and [2.479,∞)(D) [0,2.479](E) All real numbers
Find where h is increasing: To find where h is increasing, we need to find where h'(x) > 0.
Set h′(x) condition: Set h′(x)=x2−10sin(x) greater than 0 to find the intervals.x^2 - 10 \sin(x) > 0
Graph y=x2−10sin(x): Use a graphing calculator to plot y=x2−10sin(x) and find the x-values where the graph is above the x-axis.
Intervals above x-axis: The calculator shows the graph of y=x2−10sin(x) is above the x-axis in the intervals (−∞,−3.837] and [−1.977,1.306].
