Given that the equation is  

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.
Using a second derivative of function we can conclude if function is concave upward or downward. Let's find the second derivative of the function 
 
                          Use The Product Rule  
              Use The Power Rule  
                               Simplify. 
Find derivative of obtained function. That will be second derivative of function .
\begin{array}{rlr}
                      Use The Product Rule
            Use The Power Rule
             Simplify.
 
Recall that the function is concave downward if
$$
\begin{aligned}
&  
 
Solving quadratic inequality we obtain interval:
