Consider the function whose derivative is k′(x)=(x+2)2/3(x−5)x−1,−3≤x≤6.k'(x)=\frac{(x+2)^{2/3}(x-5)}{x-1},\qquad -3 \le x \le 6. On which of the following collections of open intervals is kk increasing on the given domain? a) (−3,1)∪(5,6)(-3,1)\cup(5,6) b) (−2,1)∪(5,6)(-2,1)\cup(5,6) c) (−3,−2)∪(5,6)(-3,-2)\cup(5,6) d) (−3,−2)∪(1,5)(-3,-2)\cup(1,5)
