Solution
\[f(x) = \frac{- x}{2} + \sin x\text { defined on } \left[ \frac{- \pi}{3}, \frac{\pi}{3} \right]\]
\[ \therefore f'(x) = \frac{- 1}{2} + \cos x \]
\[ \Rightarrow f'(x) \geqslant 0 \forall x \in \left[ \frac{- \pi}{3}, \frac{\pi}{3} \right]\]
\[\left[ \because \text { for } x \in \left[ \frac{- \pi}{3}, \frac{\pi}{3} \right] , \cos x \geqslant \frac{1}{2} \right]\]
Hence, the given function is increasing .
