For which values of x , the function f(x...

For which values of `x` , the function `f(x)=x/(x^2+1)` is increasing and for which values of `x` , it is decreasing.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Given,`f(x)=x/(x^2+1)`
`f'(x)=(1−x^2​)/(x^2+1)^2`
f is strictly increasing if f′(x)>0
i.e. if`(1−x^2​)/(x^2+1)^2>0`
=`(1−x^2​)>0`
=`x^2<1`
=`−1 < x < 1`
f is increasing if −1 ...
