Consider the function f(x<span>) = 2 x + 1. We recognize the equation y = 2 x + 1 as the Slope-Intercept form of the equation of a line with slope 2 and y-intercept (0,1). Think of a point moving on the </span>graph<span> of f. As the point moves toward the right it rises.
hope this helps

<u>FACTS TO KNOW BEFORE SOLVING</u> :-
- In an equation , if the bases are same in both L.H.S. & R.H.S. then , the power of the bases on both the sides of equation should be equal. For e.g. :
⇒
[∵ Bases are equal on both the sides]
<u>__________________________________________________________</u>

Lets express it in terms of 2.




Here the bases on both the sides are equal. Hence ,



It is certainly possible for a function decreasing over a certain interval to be negative, but no rule that says it must be. On the other hand, where the function is decreasing, the rate of change of the function must be negative.
