Question:
The equation of a curve is y = x3 + px2, where p is a positive constant.
i. Show that the origin is a stationary point on the curve and find the coordinates of the other stationary point in terms of p.
ii. Find the nature of each of the stationary points.
Another curve has equation y = x3 + px2 + px.
iii. Find the set of values of p for which this curve has no stationary points
