Problem

The set of all points where f(x)f(x) is increasing is (a,b)∪(c,∞)(a,b)\cup(c,\infty). Find [a+b+c][a+b+c], where [⋅][\cdot] denotes the greatest integer function, given that f(x)=2f(x22)+f(6−x2),∀x∈Rf(x)=2f\left(\frac{x^2}{2}\right)+f(6-x^2),\quad \forall x\in\mathbb{R} and f′′(x)>0f''(x)>0 for all x∈Rx\in\mathbb{R}.
