Correct answer
D. Sum of all the integral values of x for which f(x) 0 is 6 .
Step-by-step solution
f(x)= ( x-10) (x^2-4 x+3 ) (x^2+x+1 ) x^2-16 for f(x) 0 ( x-10) (x^2-4 x+3 ) (x^2+x+1 ) x^2-16 0 aligned & (x-1)(x-3) (x-4)(x+4) 0 & x (-4,1] [3,4) aligned Integral values of x are -3,-2,-1,0,1,3 , i.e., 6 and their sum =-2 . for f(x) 0 ( x-10) (x^2-4 x+3 ) (x^2+x+1 ) x^2-16 0 aligned & (x-1)(x-3) (x-4)(x+4) 0 & x (- ,-4) [1,3] [4, ] aligned Integral values of x are infinite and their sum =1+2+3=6
