MCQ
If $a < 0$ then the inequality $a{x^2} - 2x + 4 > 0$ has the solution represented by
  • $\frac{{1 + \sqrt {1 - 4a} }}{a} > x > \frac{{1 - \sqrt {1 - 4a} }}{a}$
  • B
    $x < \frac{{1 - \sqrt {1 - 4a} }}{a}$
  • C
    $x < 2$
  • D
    $2 > x > \frac{{1 + \sqrt {1 - 4a} }}{a}$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{{1 + \sqrt {1 - 4a} }}{a} > x > \frac{{1 - \sqrt {1 - 4a} }}{a}$
a
(a) $a{x^2} - 2x + 4 > 0$

==> $x = \frac{{2 \pm \sqrt {4 - 16a} }}{{2a}}$ ==> $x = \frac{{1 \pm \sqrt {1 - 4a} }}{a}$

$\therefore$ $\frac{{1 - \sqrt {1 - 4a} }}{a} < x < \frac{{1 + \sqrt {1 - 4a} }}{a}$.
