(1) When m
② When m=0 and y= 1, then y is always positive, regardless of the value of x, and f(x) is always meaningful.
③ When m >; 0, so that the y constant is greater than 0, then δ ≦ 0, that is, m? -4m≦0, and you get 0≦m≦4, because m>0, so 0.
To sum up, we can get 0≦m≦4.
2. Let y=x+ 1/x- 1.
Then let 1
y2-y 1
= x2+ 1/x2- 1-(x 1+ 1/x 1- 1)
=(x2-x 1)+( 1/x2- 1/x 1)
=(x2-x 1)+(x 1-x2)/x 1x 2
=(x2-x 1)( 1- 1/x 1x 2)
Because x2>x1>; 1, so x2-x1>; 0,x 1x 2 & gt; 1,0 & lt; 1/x 1x 2 & lt; 1,0 & lt; 1- 1/x 1x 2 & lt; 1
So y2-y 1 >: 0
So y=x+ 1/x- 1 is the increasing function at (1, +∞).
So when 0
When a> is at 1, f(x) is increasing function.
