उत्तर

f(x) = `x/logx`

∴ f'(x) = `d/dx(x/logx)`

= `((logx).d/dx(x) - x*d/dx(logx))/(logx)^2`

= `((logx) xx 1 - x xx 1/x)/(logx)^2`

= `(logx - 1)/(log x)^2`

f is increasing if f'(x) ≥ 0

i.e. if `(log x - 1)/(logx)^2 ≥ 0`

i.e. if log x – 1 ≥ 0          ...[∵ (log x)2 > 0]

i.e. if log x ≥ 1

i.e. if log x ≥ log e          ...[∵  log e = 1]

i.e. if x ≥ e

∴ f is increasing on `[e, oo)`

f is decreasing if f'(x) ≤ 0

i.e. if `(log x - 1)/(logx)^2 ≤ 0`

i.e. if log x – 1 ≤ 0                        ...[∵ (log x)2 > 0]

i.e. if log x ≤ 1

i.e. if log x ≤ log e

i.e. if x ≤ e

Also, x > 0 and x ≠ 1 because f(x) = `x/logx` is not defined at x = 1

∴ f is decreasing in (0, e] – {1}

Hence, f is increasing in `[e, oo)` and decreasing in (0, e] – {1}.
