Q47 / 90 · JEE Main 2023 (31 Jan Shift 2) · Mathematics

Let f:R-2,6→R be real valued function defined as fx=x+2x+1x2-8x+12. Then range of f is

  • A
    -∞,-214∪214,∞
  • Correct answer
    B
    -∞,-214∪[0,∞)
  • C
    -∞,-214∪0,∞
  • D
    -∞,-214∪[1,∞)

Solution

Given,

f:R-2,6→R be real valued function defined as fx=x+2x+1x2-8x+12

Now let, y=x2+2x+1x2-8x+12=x+12x-2x-6       …1

Now differentiating the above function we get,

⇒dydx=-2x+15x-16x-22x-62

Now by wavy curve method we get,

Figure

So Graph of y=x+12x-2x-6 for given domain will be,

Figure

 

So, from graph range is y∈-∞,214∪[0,∞)

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
