Question 9 The function f (x) = tan x – x always increases (B) always decreases (C) never increases (D) sometimes increases and sometimes decreases. Given š‘“(š‘„) = tan š‘„ āˆ’ š‘„ Finding š’‡^′ (š’™) š‘“^′ (š‘„)=ć€–š’”š’†š’„ć€—^šŸ š’™ āˆ’šŸ Now, we need to check if š’‡(š’™) is increasing or decreasing Checking sign of š’‡^′ (š’™) š‘“^′ (š‘„)=ć€–š’”š’†š’„ć€—^šŸ š’™ āˆ’šŸ Now, š¬šžšœ š’™ š (āˆ’āˆž,āˆ’šŸ]∪[šŸ,āˆž) So, ć€–š’”š’†š’„ć€—^šŸ š’™ šœ– [1,āˆž) Therefore, we can write this as šŸā‰¤ć€–š’”š’†š’„ć€—^šŸ š’™ā‰¤āˆž 1āˆ’šŸā‰¤ć€–š‘ š‘’š‘ć€—^2 š‘„āˆ’šŸā‰¤āˆžāˆ’šŸ 0ā‰¤ć€–š’”š’†š’„ć€—^šŸ š’™āˆ’šŸā‰¤āˆž Thus, ć€–š‘ š‘’š‘ć€—^2 š‘„āˆ’1≄0 ∓ š’‡^′ (š’™)>šŸŽ for all values of x Hence, š’‡(š’™) always increases. So, the correct answer is (A)
