Increasing and Decreasing Functions

Increasing Function:

On an interval I, a function f(x) is said to be increasing, if for any two numbers x and y in I such that x < y, 

⇒ f(x) ≤ f(y)

Decreasing Function:

On an interval I, a function f(x) is said to be decreasing, if for any two numbers x and y in I such that x < y,

⇒ f(x) ≥ f(y)

Strictly Increasing Function:

On an interval I, a function f(x) is said to be strictly increasing, if for any two numbers x and y in I such that x < y,

⇒ f(x) < f(y)

Strictly Decreasing Function:

On an interval I, a function f(x) is said to be strictly decreasing, if for any two numbers x and y in I such that x < y,

⇒ f(x) > f(y)
