Solution 1

\[f\left( x \right) = e^{2x} \]

\[f'\left( x \right) = 2 e^{2x} \]

\[\text { Now,} \]

\[x \in R\]

 Since the value of   `e^{2x}` text  is always positive for any real value of x, ` e^{2x}` > 0 . 

\[ \Rightarrow 2 e^{2x} > 0\]

\[ \Rightarrow f'\left( x \right) > 0\]

\[\text { So,f(x)is increasing on R} .\]

Solution 2

We have f(x) = e2x

f'(x) = 2e2x > 0, x `in` R

f is strictly increasing on R
