This question requires the pre-requisite idea from trigonometry that -1 ≤ sin x ≤ 1 for all real values of x.

Does this ring a bell to you?

Think again. Where did you see the relation -1 ≤ sin x ≤ 1?

From here, we can deduce, by adding the number 2 to all three sides of the inequality, that 1 ≤ 2 + sin x ≤ 3, so this results in 1 ≤ dy/dx ≤ 3.

This means that the values of dy/dx can range from 1 to 3 (inclusive of the two boundary values). In any case, this range (of 1 to 3) already exceeds 0, so we can safely say that dy/dx > 0 whatever the case is.

Since dy/dx > 0 at all times, this indicates that the gradient of the graph is always positive, so the curve is always increasing,

dy/dx is the gradiend G from the graph I added in, dy/dx is always between1 and 3 (inclusive). So it is always greater than or equal to 1... That is always positive
