As we have learned

Increasing function -

A function y = f(x) is called an increasing function in an interval l.

for\:\:x_{1}<x_{2}\Rightarrow f(x_{1})\leq f(x_{2})


or\:for\:\:x_{1}>x_{2}\Rightarrow f(x_{1})\geq f(x_{2})

- wherein

 

 \because f(x) is increasing , so for x_{1}< x_{2}  it is not p[ossible that f(x_{1})> f(x_{2})

 

 

 

 

 


Option 1)

f(2) < f(1)

Option 2)

f(3) > f(2)

Option 3)

f(100)) > f(-1)

Option 4)

f(9) > f(5)
