The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the function \( f'(x) = \log_{1/3}(\log_3(\sin x + a)) \) and determine the conditions under which \( f(x) \) is strictly decreasing for all real values of \( x \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Condition for Decreasing Function:** A function \( f(x) \) is strictly decreasing if its derivative \( f'(x) < 0 \) for all \( x \). 2. **Setting Up the Inequality:** We start with the given derivative: \[ f'(x) = \log_{1/3}(\log_3(\sin x + a)) \] For \( f(x) \) to be strictly decreasing, we need: \[ \log_{1/3}(\log_3(\sin x + a)) < 0 \] 3. **Using Properties of Logarithms:** The logarithm \( \log_{1/3}(y) < 0 \) implies that \( y < 1 \) because the base \( \frac{1}{3} < 1 \). Therefore, we have: \[ \log_3(\sin x + a) < 1 \] 4. **Exponentiating Both Sides:** To eliminate the logarithm, we exponentiate: \[ \sin x + a < 3^1 \] Simplifying gives: \[ \sin x + a < 3 \] Thus: \[ a < 3 - \sin x \] 5. **Finding the Range of \( \sin x \):** The function \( \sin x \) oscillates between -1 and 1. Therefore, we need to consider the maximum and minimum values of \( \sin x \): - When \( \sin x = 1 \): \[ a < 3 - 1 \implies a < 2 \] - When \( \sin x = -1 \): \[ a < 3 - (-1) \implies a < 4 \] 6. **Combining the Results:** Since \( a \) must satisfy both conditions, we take the more restrictive condition: \[ a < 2 \] 7. **Conclusion:** The complete set of values of \( a \) for which \( f(x) \) is strictly decreasing for all real values of \( x \) is: \[ a < 2 \] ### Final Answer: The complete set of values of \( a \) for which \( f(x) \) is strictly decreasing for all real values of \( x \) is \( a < 2 \).
