The function f(x)= ( +x) (e+x) is
Options
- Adecreasing on (0, e ) , increasing on ( e , )
- Bincreasing on (0, e ) , decreasing on ( e , )
- Cincreasing on (0, )
- Ddecreasing on (0, )
Correct answer
D. decreasing on (0, )
Step-by-step solution
aligned & f ( x )= ( + x ) ( e + x ) & f ^ ( x )= 1 + x ( e + x )- ( + x ) 1 e + x ( e + x ) ^2 & f ^ ( x )= ( e + x ) ( e + x )-( + x ) ( + x ) ( + x )( e + x ) ( e + x ) ^2 aligned Let g(x)=(e+x) (e+x)-( +x) ( +x) g ^ ( x )= ( e + x )- ( + x )<0 So, g ( x ) is decreasing aligned & g ( x )< g (0) x (0, ) & ( e + x ) ( e + x )-( + x ) ( + x )< e e - <0 & f ^ ( x )<0 x (0, ) & f ( x ) is decreasing on (0, ) aligned
