Hi- I've been working on this for hours, and I've gotten nowhere. If anyone could help, it would be greatly appreciated. A W-shaped quartic function has two points of inflection (call them W and X). The line that intersects W and X also intersects Y and Z, two other points on the quartic function. I have to prove that the ratio YW:WX:XZ is constant (1:1.62:1, to be specific). How would I go about doing that? Thanks!
