Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
(iv) (iii); (viii) (II)

or

and let

(i) Both roots are smaller than 2 .

Consider the following cases:

Case I

[from Eq. (i)]

Case II -coordinate of vertex .

[from Eq. (ii)]

or

Case III

Combining all cases, we get

(ii) Both roots are greater than 2 .

Consider the following cases:

Case I

[from Eq. (i)]

Case II -coordinate of vertex

[from Eq. (ii)]

Case III

from part (i)

Combining all cases, we get

(iii) Both roots lie in the interval .

Consider the following cases:

Case I

[from Eq. (i)]

Case II

[from part (i)]

Case III

or

Case IV -coordinate of vertex

or or

Combining all cases, we get

(iv) Exactly one root lie in the interval .

Consider the following cases:

Case I D > 0

[from Eq. (i)]

Case II

Combining all cases, we get

(v) One root is smaller than 1 and the other root is greater than 1.

Consider the following cases:

Case I

[from Eq. (i)]

Case II

[from Eq. (iii)]

Combining both cases, we get

(vi) One root is greater than 3 and the other root is smaller than 2.

Consider the following cases:

[from Eq. (i)]

Case II

Case III

Combining all cases, we get

(vii) Atleast one root lies in the interval .

i.e. part (iv) (iii)

(viii) Atleast one root is greater than 2 .

i.e. (Exactly one root is greater than 2 (Both roots are greater than 2)

or Exactly one root is greater than 2 b)…(i)

Consider the following cases:

Case I

[from Eq. (i)]

Case II

Combining both cases, we get

Finally from Eqs. (I) and (II), we get

(ix) Atleast one root is smaller than 2.

i.e. (Exactly one root is smaller than 2 (Both roots are smaller than 2) or part (viii) (II) (i)

We get,

(x) Both 2 and 3 lie between and .

Consider the following cases:

[from Eq. (i)]

Case II

Case III

Combining all cases, we get
