Write the set of values of `' a '` for which `f(x)=(log)_a x` is increasing in its domain.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We have given
`f(x)=log_a x`
Let `x_1`,`x_2 in(0,oo)` such that `x_1`<`x_2`
As given function is logarithmic, either `a`>`1` or` 0`<`a`<`1`.
Case I : Let `a`>`1`
Here, `x_1`<`x_2`
`implies log_ax_1` <`log_ax_2`
`impliesf(x_1)`<`f(x_2)`
...
