Which one of the following is correct ? The function
`f(x) =(x-1)e^(x)+1` is

A

negative for all `x gt 0`

B

positive for all `x gt 0`

C

increasing for all `x gt 0`

D

decreasing for all x

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

The given function is
`f(x) =(x-1)e^(x)+1`
`rarr f(x) =(x-1)e^(x)+e^(x` ltrbgt `=(x-1+1)e^(x)=xe^(x)`
Thus it is clear that f(x) is increasing for all x
