a.When is the particle moving in the positive direction? (Enter your answer using interval notation.) 

b.Draw a diagram to illustrate the motion of the particle and use it to find the total distance (in ft) traveled during the first 6 seconds.

c.When is the particle speeding up?When is the particle slowing down? (answer in interval notation.)

A particle moves according to a law of motion s = f(t), t > 0, where t is measured in seconds and s in feet.
f(t) = t3 – 9t2 + 24t
