उत्तर
`f(x) = x - 1/x`
`f'(x) = d/dx (x-1/x)`
`= 1-(-1/x^2)`
`= 1+1/x^2 > 0` for all x ∈ R, where x ≠ 0

∴ 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`
