How do you solve #(2y^2+3y-20)/(y^3-y^2)>0#?

Factorise the numerator and denominator

#2y^2+3y-20=(2y-5)(y+4)#

#y^3-y^2=y^2(y-1)#

So,

#(2y^2+3y-20)/(y^3-y^2)=((2y-5)(y+4))/(y^2(y-1))#

Let #y=((2y-5)(y+4))/(y^2(y-1))#

The domain of #y# is #D_y=RR-{0,1}#

#y^2>0 AA y in D_y#

Let's do a sign chart

Therefore,

#f(y)>0#, when #y in [-4, 0[ uu] 0,1 [uu [5/2, +oo[#
