The interval in which $y=x^2 e^{2 x}$ is increasing is
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
$y=x^2 e^{2 x} ~~\Rightarrow y'=2 x e^{2 x}+2 x^2 e^{2 x}$
so $y'=0 ~~\Rightarrow e^{2 x}(2 x)(1+x)=0$
$\Rightarrow x=0,-1$
Using wavy curve method
so y' > 0 for x ∈ (-∞, -1) υ (0, ∞)
so y is increasing
