The function \(f(x)=\frac{x-2}{x+1}, x \neq-1\) is increasing when (Where \(R\) is a set of real numbers:

  1. A \(x \in R\)
  2. B \(x \in R -\{-1\}\)
  3. C \(x \in R -\{1,-1\}\)
  4. D \(x \in R -\{0\}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(x \in R -\{-1\}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(f'(x) = \frac{(x+1)(1) - (x-2)(1)}{(x+1)^2}\) \(f'(x) = \frac{3}{(x+1)^2}\) \(f'(x) > 0 \Rightarrow \frac{3}{(x+1)^2} > 0\) \((x+1)^2 > 0\) \(x+1 \neq 0\) \(x \neq -1\) \(x \in R - \{-1\}\)
