2,  (a) f increases on (0, 6) since f is non-negative there

      (b) f has a relative minimum at x = 0 since f changes sign from negative to positive there.
           f has a maximum at x = 6 since it's the endpoint of the domain and f is increasing on the interval (0, 6].

      (c) f is concave down on (4, 5) since we can infer from the graph that  f  is negative there

3.  1/6 ft/min

4.  The 2 numbers are 10 and 10

Part 2:

1 (a) f increasing:   0 < x < 3 or x > 3

        graph concave up:  -3 < x < 3
        f’’ never = 0, therefore no inflection points

        Vertical asymptotes: x = -3, x = 3

        Horizontal asymptotes: y = 6

2. (a) x(t) = t3 - 5t2 - 8t + 32

    (b) v(t) = 3t2 - 10t - 8,   v(t) = (3t + 2)(t - 4) = 0. Therefore  t = 4,    (reject t = -2/3)
