Question

If the roots of the equationblank x to the power of 2 end exponent minus 2 a x plus a to the power of 2 end exponent plus a minus 3 equals 0 are less than 3, then

  1. a less than 2    
  2. 2 less or equal than a less or equal than 3    
  3. 3 less than a less or equal than 4    
  4. a greater than 4    

The correct answer is: a less than 2


    Since roots are less than a real number, roots must be real
    table row cell 4 a to the power of 2 end exponent minus 4 open parentheses a to the power of 2 end exponent plus a minus 3 close parentheses greater or equal than 0 end cell row cell rightwards double arrow a less or equal than 3 end cell end table
    text Let  end text f left parenthesis x right parenthesis equals x to the power of 2 end exponent minus 2 a x plus a to the power of 2 end exponent plus a minus 3 text  . Since  end text 3 text  lies outside the roots end text
    Sum of the roots must be less than 6
    2a < 6 ⇒ a < 3
    From Eqs. (1)−(3), we have
    a < 2
