Problem

If f(x)f(x) and g(x)g(x) are two positive increasing functions, then (1) (f(x))g(x)(f(x))^{g(x)} is always increasing. (2) If (f(x))g(x)(f(x))^{g(x)} is decreasing, then f(x)<1f(x)<1. (3) If (f(x))g(x)(f(x))^{g(x)} is increasing, then f(x)>1f(x)>1. (4) If f(x)>1f(x)>1, then (f(x))g(x)(f(x))^{g(x)} is increasing.
