Question : 5 of 20
Marks: +1, -0
The function f(x)=x33x2+12x18f(x) = x^3 - 3x^2 + 12x - 18 is
Solution:  
f(x)=x33x2+12x18f(x) = x^3 - 3x^2 + 12 x - 18
f(x)=3x26x+12=3(x22x+4)f'(x) = 3x^2 - 6x +12 = 3(x^2 - 2x +4)
Case I: f is strictly increasing (f'(x) > 0)
3(x22x+4)>0x22x+4>0x22x+1+3>03(x^2 - 2x + 4) > 0 \rightarrow x^2 - 2x + 4 > 0 \rightarrow x^2 - 2x + 1 + 3 > 0
(x1)2+3>0(x-1)^2 + 3 > 0
(x1)2>3(x-1)^2 > -3 \rightarrow Always True because positive real number is always greater than negative real number.
