Correct answer: C
- Given
We have
Also, but note that the statements and involve only . So is not needed here.
- Analyze statement
Statement says:
Substitute : Rearrange: So
Now observe:
- Left side satisfies since .
- Right side is
Hence so equality is impossible for any real .
Therefore, is false.
- Analyze statement
Statement says:
Substitute : Simplify: So
We need to check whether this has some real solution.
A very natural choice is . Then right side becomes Left side becomes
=2\cdot \frac14\sin^2\left(\frac12\right) =\frac12\sin^2\left(\frac12\right)>0,$$ so $x=\frac12$ is not a solution. Try instead to force the left side to be $0$. Since $$2(1-x)^2\sin^2 x=0$$ when either $x=1$ or $\sin x=0$. Take $x=1$. Then left side is $0$, and right side is $$2(1)-1=1,$$ so not a solution. Take $x=n\pi$ for integer $n$. Then left side is $0$. For equality we need $$2x-1=0 \implies x=\frac12,$$ which is not of the form $n\pi$. So those do not work directly. Let us instead define $$h(x)=2(1-x)^2\sin^2 x-(2x-1).$$ We seek some $x$ with $h(x)=0$. Check two values: - At $x=\frac12$, $$h\left(\frac12\right)=\frac12\sin^2\left(\frac12\right)>0.$$ - At $x=1$, $$h(1)=0-(2-1)=-1<0.$$ Since $h(x)$ is continuous, by the Intermediate Value Theorem there exists some $$x\in\left(\frac12,1\right)$$ such that $$h(x)=0.$$ Hence there exists a real $x$ satisfying $$2f(x)+1=2x(1+x).$$ Therefore, **$Q$ is true**. --- 4. **Conclusion** - $P$ is false - $Q$ is true Therefore the correct option is $$\boxed{\text{C}}$$ --- 5. **Comparison with stored answer** Stored correct answer: $C$ Our derived answer is also $C$, so they agree.More from Application of Derivatives
