I need help with q17 part b, d and e pls
		
		
	 
For b, use the derivative of  cos^-1(x) formula 
For d,
when x > 1 then the equation given is just positive x instead of abs value x
when x < 1 then equation given is just negative x instead of abs value x
For e,
For x > 1,
 = \frac{1}{x\times \sqrt{x^{2} - 1}} )
this is simply going to be positive as the denom will always be positive as 

 and 

 and as the derivative is positive for all values x > 1, hence it increases for x > 1
For x < 1,

 will be negative as x is a negative value multiplying the positive value from 

 and therefore the denom is negative. As there is a negative outside, that will multiply with the negative value inside the brackets and hence will always produce a positive value. Hence it is increasing for this domain as well. This is just elaboration, I would just do;

 as x < 0 and 

 so denominator is > 0  within the domain
Therefore function is increasing for x < -1
