Let and . Then, is equal to :
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
We need to find , , and then compute .
1. Find
Given
Step 1: Simplify the denominator
So the inequality becomes
Equivalently,
Step 2: Analyze
Check its discriminant:
Since leading coefficient is positive, we have
Thus the sign depends only on
with .
Step 3: Critical points
Critical points are
Now do sign analysis:
-
For : take
so included.
-
For : take
so not included.
-
For : take
so included.
-
For : take
so not included.
At , numerator is zero, denominator nonzero, so equality holds and is included.
Therefore,
2. Find
Given
Step 1: Substitute
Since , let
Then
So the inequality becomes
Step 2: Factorize
So
Hence
Now , so
Since is increasing,
Therefore,
3. Compute
We have
Therefore,
4. Match with options
This is Option B.
