Solution
y = `log (1 + x) – (2x)/(2 + x), x > - 1`
∴ `dy/dx =d/dx[log (1 + x) - (2x)/(2 + x)]`
= `(1)/(1 + x).d/dx(1 + x) - ((2 + x).d/dx(2x) - 2x.d/dx(2 + x))/(2 + x)^2`
= `(1)/(1 + x) xx (0 + 1) ((2 + x) xx 2 - 2x(0 + 1))/(2 + x)^2`
= `(1)/(1 + x) - (4 + 2x - 2x)/(2 + x)^2`
= `(1)/(1 + x) - (4)/(2 + x)^2`
= `((2 + x)^2 - 4(1 + x))/((1 + x)(2 + x)^2)`
= `(4 + 4x + x^2 - 4 - 4x)/((1 + x)(2 + x)^2`
= `(x^2)/((1 + x)(2 + x)^2) >` 0 for all x > – 1
Hence, the given function is increasing function on its domain.

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`
