First, we must solve for the roots of the cubic polynomial equation.
We obtain that the roots are
.
Now there are four regions created by these numbers:
-
. In this region, the values of the polynomial are negative (i.e.plug in
and you obtain 
-
. In this region, the values of the polynomial are positive (when
, polynomial evaluates to
)
-
. In this region the polynomial switches again to negative.
-
. In this region the values of the polynomial are positive
Hence the two regions we want are
and
.
