 2𝑦 = 2 − 2𝑥
 2𝑦 > 0 (exponential function)

Given : f ( x ) = log 2  
 x +2 + 2− x 
Here, denominator is
 x +2 + 2− x  0
Also,
 𝑥 + 2 ≥ 0 and 2 − 𝑥 ≥ 0
 𝑥 ≥ −2 𝑥≤2
∴ 𝑥 ∈ [−2, 2]
Let 𝑔(𝑥) = √𝑥 + 2 + √2 − 𝑥

 g '( x ) = − =0 [Diff. and equating to zero]
2 x +2 2 2− x
2− x − 2+ x
 =0
2 x +2 2− x
 √2 − 𝑥 − √2 + 𝑥 = 0
 √2 − 𝑥 = √2 + 𝑥
2−𝑥 = 2+𝑥 (squaring)
Now 𝑓(0) = 2√2
 𝑔(−2) = 2
 𝑔(2) = 2
∴ 2 ≤ 𝑔(𝑥) ≤ 2√2

𝑓(𝑥) = 2𝑥 3 – 15𝑥 2 + 36𝑥 + 1
⇒ 𝑓′(𝑥) = 6(𝑥 2 – 5𝑥 + 6) = 6(𝑥– 2)(𝑥– 3)
∵ 𝑓(𝑥) is non monotonic in 𝑥 ∈ [0,3]

𝑓(𝑥) is increasing in 𝑥 ∈ [0,2) and decreasing in 𝑥 ∈ (2,3]
𝑓(0) = 1, 𝑓(2) = 29 & 𝑓(3) = 28
