The derivative h′(x)h'(x) is zero at x=−2, 1, and 4x=-2,\,1,\text{ and }4. It is positive for x<−2x<-2, negative for −2<x<1-2<x<1, positive for 1<x<41<x<4, and negative for x>4x>4. On which interval is the original function hh increasing? (a) (−2,4)(-2,4) (b) (4,∞)(4,\infty) (c) (1,4)(1,4) (d) (−2,1)(-2,1)
