Question 5 Find the intervals in which the function f given by f (x) = x2 – 4x + 6 is strictly increasing: (a) (−∞, 2) ∪ (2,∞) (b) (2,∞) (c) (−∞, 2) (d) (−∞, 2] ∪ (2,∞) f(𝑥) = 𝑥2 – 4𝑥 + 6 Calculate f’(𝒙) 𝑓’ (𝑥) = 2𝑥 – 4 Calculate f’(𝒙) = 0 2𝑥 – 4 = 0 2𝑥 = 4 𝑥 = 4/2=2 Hence 𝑥 = 2 divide real line into 2 disjoint intervals. Plotting points on number line Hence. f is strictly increasing in interval (2 , ∞) So, the correct answer is (b)
