Concept:  

If f′(x) >  0 at each point in an interval, then the function is said to be strictly increasing.

Calculations:

Given , f(x) = 2x2 - 3x 

Differentiating, we get

f'(x) = 4x - 3

f(x) is strictly increasing function

∴ f'(x) > 0

⇒ 4x - 3 > 0

⇒ 4x > 3 

⇒ x > \(\rm\frac{3}{4}\)

∴ x ∈ (\(\rm\frac{3}{4}\), ∞)

Important Points

Value of x

Intervals

Sign of f’(x) = 4x - 3

Nature of function f

x < \(\frac{3}{4}\)

(-∞, \(\frac{3}{4}\))

(-)  < 0

f is strictly decreasing

x > \(\frac{3}{4}\)

(\(\frac{3}{4}\), ∞)

(+)  < 0

f is strictly increasing
