MCQ
The function $f(x) = x\, + \,\cos x$ is
  • Always increasing
  • B
    Always decreasing
  • C
    Increasing for certain range of  $x$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: A.
Always increasing
a
(a) $f(x) = x + \cos x$ ==> $f'(x) = 1 - \sin x$

$\Rightarrow$ $f'(x) > 0$ for all values of  $x.$

$\therefore$ $f(x)$ is always increasing.
