    Function\[f(x)=\frac{x}{1+x}-\log (1+x),x>0\]is

    A)  decreasing function

    B)  increasing function

    C)  not monotonic

    D)  None of the above

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     \[f(x)=\frac{x}{1+x}-\log (1+x),x>0\] \[f'(x)=\frac{(1+x).1-x.1}{{{(1+x)}^{2}}}-\frac{1}{1+x}\] \[=\frac{1}{{{(1+x)}^{2}}}-\frac{1}{1+x}\] \[=\frac{1-(1+x)}{{{(1+x)}^{2}}}=-\frac{x}{{{(1+x)}^{2}}}\] If\[x>0,\]then\[f'(x)\]decreases \[\therefore \] \[f(x)\]is decreasing function.
