Correct answer: D
Let and we are given So write
We need the set
1. Simplify numerator and denominator
Numerator
and Hence
Denominator
Now,
Thus the expression becomes
We need its real part.
2. Compute the real part
Let Multiply numerator and denominator by the conjugate :
Now expand the numerator: [ (9+y^2+2iy)(1+iy) =(9+y^2)+i y(9+y^2)+2iy+2i^2y^2. ] Since , [ =(9+y^2)-2y^2+i\big(y(9+y^2)+2y\big) =(9-y^2)+i(y^3+11y). ] Therefore, So
Hence the required set is the range of
3. Find the range of
Put Then
Now check monotonicity: So is strictly decreasing for .
Therefore:
- maximum occurs at ,
- minimum is approached as .
Maximum
So the right endpoint is included.
Lower limit
This value is not attained for any finite , so the left endpoint is open.
Thus the set is Hence
4. Compute
Therefore,
5. Match with options
The correct option is:
6. Comparison with stored answer
Stored correct answer: D
Our derived answer is also D. So they agree.
