Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(a d-b c<0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given \(f(x) = \dfrac{a \sin x + b \cos x}{c \sin x + d \cos x}\). To determine the condition for \(f(x)\) to be decreasing, we find the derivative \(f'(x)\) using the quotient rule \(\left( \dfrac{u}{v} \right)' = \dfrac{u'v - uv'}{v^2}\). Let \(u = a \sin x + b \cos x\) and…
