Question
Find the interval in which the following function are increasing or decreasing f(x) = 6 − 9x − x2 ?
Solution
\[\text { When }\left( x - a \right)\left( x - b \right)>0 \text { with} a < b, x < a \ or \ x>b.\]
\[\text { When } \left( x - a \right)\left( x - b \right)<0 \text { with } a < b, a < x < b .\]
\[f\left( x \right) = 6 - 9x - x^2 \]
\[f'\left( x \right) = - 2x - 9\]
\[\text { For }f(x) \text { to be increasing, we must have }\]
\[f'\left( x \right) > 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow - 2x - 9 > 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow - 2x > 9\]
\[ \Rightarrow x < \frac{- 9}{2}\]
\[ \Rightarrow x \in \left( - \infty , \frac{- 9}{2} \right)\]
\[\text { So,}f(x)\text { is increasing on } \left( - \infty , \frac{- 9}{2} \right) . \]
\[\text { For }f(x) \text { to be decreasing, we must have }\]
\[f'\left( x \right) < 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow - 2x - 9 < 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow - 2x < 9\]
\[ \Rightarrow x > \frac{- 9}{2}\]
\[ \Rightarrow x \in \left( \frac{- 9}{2}, \infty \right)\]
\[\text { So,}f(x)\text { is decreasing on }\left( \frac{- 9}{2}, \infty \right).\]
