Question
The function f(x) = −x/2 + sin x defined on [−π/3, π/3] is
Options
increasing
decreasing
constant
none of these
Solution
\[f(x) = \frac{- x}{2} + \sin x\text { defined on } \left[ \frac{- \pi}{3}, \frac{\pi}{3} \right]\]
\[ \therefore f'(x) = \frac{- 1}{2} + \cos x \]
\[ \Rightarrow f'(x) \geqslant 0 \forall x \in \left[ \frac{- \pi}{3}, \frac{\pi}{3} \right]\]
\[\left[ \because \text { for } x \in \left[ \frac{- \pi}{3}, \frac{\pi}{3} \right] , \cos x \geqslant \frac{1}{2} \right]\]
Hence, the given function is increasing .

Solution: f(x) = 2x3 – 15x2 – 84x – 7
∴ 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`
