JEE Main2006MathematicsQuadratic EquationActual
All the values of m for which both roots of the equations x^2-2 m x+m^2-1=0 are greater than -2 but less than 4 , lie in the interval
Options
- A−2 < m < 0
- Bm > 3
- C−1 < m < 3
- D1 < m < 4
Correct answer
C. −1 < m < 3
Step-by-step solution
Equation x^2-2 m x+m^2-1=0 aligned & (x-m)^2-1=0 & (x-m+1)(x-m-1)=0 & x=m-1, m+1 & -2 -1 and m < 3-1 < m < 3
