Problem

Consider the function pp, twice differentiable on (−3,5)(-3,5) except at x=1x=1, where p′′p'' is undefined. The second derivative is given by p′′(x)=(x−2)2(x+1)x−1,x≠1.p''(x)=\frac{(x-2)^{2}(x+1)}{x-1}, \quad x\neq 1. List all values of xx in the interval (−3,5)(-3,5) at which pp has an inflection point.
