f(x) = 2x3 - 15x2 + 36x + 1

Solution

f(x) = 2x3 - 15x2 + 36x + 1 

∴ f'(x) = 6x2 - 30x + 36

= 6(x2 - 5x + 6)

= 6(x - 3)(x - 2)

f(x) is an increasing function, if f'(x) > 0

∴ 6(x - 3)(x - 2) > 0

∴ (x - 3)(x - 2) > 0

ab > 0 ⇔ a > 0 and b > 0 or a < 0 or b < 0

∴ Either (x – 3) > 0 and (x – 2) > 0 or
(x – 3) < 0 and (x – 2) < 0

Case 1: x – 3 > 0    and    x – 2 > 0

∴ x > 3       and      x > 2

∴ x > 3

Case 2: x – 3 < 0     and      x – 2 < 0

∴ x < 3       and      x < 2

∴ x < 2

Thus, f(x) is an increasing function for x < 2 or x > 3, i.e., (- ∞, 2) ∪ (3, ∞)

By completing the following activity, find the values of x such that f(x) = 2x3 – 15x2 – 84x – 7 is decreasing function.

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`

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) = `6(x - 1)(square)`
