Let and be two functions defined by and . Then, for which of the following range of , the inequality holds ?
- A(2, 3)
- B( 2, 1)
- C(1, 2)
- D( 1, 1)
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: A
- Simplify the functions
Given and
We need to solve
- Study monotonicity of
Differentiate:
Now check whether for all real .
Let
- If , then both terms are nonnegative and , so .
- If , write where . Then Since (because ), we get .
Hence, So is strictly increasing on .
Therefore,
So the given inequality becomes
- Study monotonicity of
Recall Differentiate: Thus is strictly decreasing on .
Therefore,
So we need
- Solve the quadratic inequality
Multiply by : Expand: Factor:
Hence,
- Match with options
The correct range is which is Option A.
- Comparison with stored answer
Stored correct answer: A
Our derived answer: A
So they agree.
