- Strictly increasing
- Strictly decreasing

Solution
f(x) = 2x3 - 3x2 - 36x + 7
f'(x) = 6x2 - 6x - 36
= 6(x2 - x - 6)
= 6(x - 3) (x + 2)
if, f'(x) = 0
6(x - 3) (x + 2) = 0
x = -2, 3 divides the real line into three intervals `(- infty, - 2), (-2, 3)` and `(3, infty)`.
(a) The function f is continuously increasing in the intervals `(- infty, - 2)` and `(3, infty)`.
(b) The function f is continuously decreasing in the interval (-2, 3).

Find the value of x for which the function f(x)= 2x3 – 9x2 + 12x + 2 is decreasing.
Given f(x) = 2x3 – 9x2 + 12x + 2
∴ f'(x) = `squarex^2 - square + square`
∴ f'(x) = `6(x - 1)(square)`
Now f'(x) < 0
∴ 6(x – 1)(x – 2) < 0
Since ab < 0 ⇔a < 0 and b < 0 or a > 0 and b < 0
Case 1: (x – 1) < 0 and (x – 2) < 0
∴ x < `square` and x > `square`
Which is contradiction
Case 2: x – 1 and x – 2 < 0
∴ x > `square` and x < `square`
1 < `square` < 2
f(x) is decreasing if and only if x ∈ `square`
