Chapter 5.1, Problem 53E

Alcohol Concentration In Exercise 47 in Section 1.5 on Polynomial and Rational Functions, we gave the function defined by

A ( t ) = 0.003631 t 3 0.03746 t 2 + 0.1012 t + 0.009

as the approximate blood alcohol concentration in a 170 lb woman t hours after drinking 2  oz of alcohol on an empty stomach, for t in the interval [ 0 , 5 ] . Source Medicolegal Aspects of Alcohol Determination in Biological Specimens.

a. On what time intervals is the alcohol concentration increasing?

b. On what intervals is it decreasing?
