उत्तर
\[f\left( x \right) = a^x \]
\[f'\left( x \right) = a^x \log a\]
\[\text { Given }:f\left( x \right) \text { is decreasing on R }.\]
\[ \Rightarrow f'\left( x \right) < 0, \forall x \in R\]
\[ \Rightarrow a^x \log a < 0, \forall x \in R\]
\[\text { Here, logaritmic function is not defined for negative values of a } . \]
\[ \Rightarrow a^x > 0 \]
\[ \therefore a^x \log a < 0 \text { can be possible when } \log a < 0, \forall x \in R . \]
\[ \Rightarrow 0 < a < 1\]

∴ 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`
