The function f(x)= ⁻¹( x+ x) is an increasing function in
Options
- A( 4 , 2 )
- B(- 2 , 4 )
- C(0, 2 )
- D(- 2 , 2 )
Correct answer
B. (- 2 , 4 )
Step-by-step solution
f^ (x)= 1 1+( x+ x)^2 ( x- x)= 2 (x+ 4 ) 1+( x+ x)^2 f(x) is increasing if - 2 < x+ 4 < 2 - 3 4 < x < 4 hence f(x) is increasing when x (- 2 , 4 ) .
