Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) increasing in \(\left(-\frac{1}{2}, 1\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(f'(x) = \frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}x}(x \cdot \mathrm{e}^{x-x^2})\) \(f'(x) = 1 \cdot \mathrm{e}^{x-x^2} + x \cdot \mathrm{e}^{x-x^2} \cdot (1-2x)\)
