The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the interval in which the function \( g(x) = 2f\left(\frac{x}{2}\right) + f(2 - x) \) is increasing, given that \( f''(x) < 0 \) for all \( x \) in the interval \( (0, 2) \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Find the derivative \( g'(x) \)**: \[ g'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}\left(2f\left(\frac{x}{2}\right) + f(2 - x)\right) \] Using the chain rule, we differentiate each term: \[ g'(x) = 2 \cdot f'\left(\frac{x}{2}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{2} + f'(2 - x) \cdot (-1) \] Simplifying this gives: \[ g'(x) = f'\left(\frac{x}{2}\right) - f'(2 - x) \] 2. **Determine when \( g'(x) > 0 \)**: We want to find the values of \( x \) such that: \[ f'\left(\frac{x}{2}\right) > f'(2 - x) \] 3. **Analyze the behavior of \( f' \)**: Since \( f''(x) < 0 \) for \( x \in (0, 2) \), this means that \( f'(x) \) is a decreasing function. Therefore, if \( x_1 < x_2 \), then: \[ f'(x_1) > f'(x_2) \] 4. **Set up the inequality**: Let \( a = \frac{x}{2} \) and \( b = 2 - x \). We need to find when: \[ f'(a) > f'(b) \] Given that \( f' \) is decreasing, this inequality implies: \[ a < b \] Substituting back for \( a \) and \( b \): \[ \frac{x}{2} < 2 - x \] 5. **Solve the inequality**: Rearranging the inequality: \[ \frac{x}{2} + x < 2 \] \[ \frac{3x}{2} < 2 \] \[ 3x < 4 \] \[ x < \frac{4}{3} \] 6. **Consider the domain**: Since \( x \) must also be in the interval \( (0, 2) \), we combine the results: \[ 0 < x < \frac{4}{3} \] 7. **Final interval**: Therefore, the interval in which \( g(x) \) is increasing is: \[ \boxed{(0, \frac{4}{3})} \]
