Question
Find the intervals in which the following functions are strictly increasing or decreasing:
10 − 6x − 2x2
Solution
It is known that- f(x) = 10 - 6x - 2x2
f'(x) = - 6 - 4x = - 2 (3 + 2x)
When f'(x) = 0 `=>` -2 (3 + 3x) = 0 `=> x = - 3/2`
The point `x = - 3/2` divides the number line into two parts, the intervals `(- infty, - 3/2)` and `(3/2, infty )`.
Interval `(- infty, - 3/2),` f'(x) = + Positive
Hence, the function f is continuously increasing
Interval `(3/2, infty),` f'(x) = - Positive
Hence, the function f is decreasing.

∴ 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`
