Correct answer: C
Let the quadratic polynomial be where is one root and is the other root.
We are given:
1. Compute and
Using ,
and
So,
Since , divide by :
2. Solve for
3. Identify the interval
Now, which lies in the interval
So the other root lies in Option C.
4. Check options systematically
- A: →
- B: →
- C: →
- D: →
