function is increasing when derivative is > 0

Answer 2

please need help on that one..

Answer 3

Answer 4

no the denominator is a square so will be either 0 or positive
and numerator is -14 so for most values of x the derivative will be negative
and the function will be decreasing

Answer 5

except when x = 2 the denominator will be zero so there will be a vertical asymptote at that point
