What are the values of 'a' for which f(x) = ax is increasing on R ?

योग

उत्तर

\[f\left( x \right) = a^x \]

\[f'\left( x \right) = a^x \log a\]

\[\text { Given }: f(x) \text { is increasing on R } . \]

\[ \Rightarrow f'\left( x \right) > 0\]

\[ \Rightarrow a^x \log a > 0\]

\[\text { Logarithmic function is defined for positive values of a } . \]

\[ \Rightarrow a > 0\]

\[ \Rightarrow a^x > 0\]

\[\text { We know,} \]

\[ a^x \log a > 0\]

\[\text{ It can be possible when } a^x > 0 \text { and } \log a > 0 \text { or }a^x < 0 \text { and } \log a < 0 . \]

\[ \Rightarrow \log a > 0\]

\[ \Rightarrow a > 1\]

\[\text { So, }f(x)\text { is increasing when }a> 1 .\]

∴ f'(x) = `square`

∴ f'(x) = 6`(square) (square)`

Since f(x) is decreasing function.

∴ f'(x) < 0

Case 1: `(square)` > 0 and (x + 2) < 0

∴ x ∈ `square`

Case 2: `(square)` < 0 and (x + 2) > 0

∴ x ∈ `square`

∴ f(x) is decreasing function if and only if x ∈ `square`
