I.

Question 1.
Solve the following inequations by the algebraic method.
(i) 15x2 + 4x – 4 ≤ 0
Solution:
15x2 + 4x – 4 ≤ 0

⇒ 3x(5x – 2) + 2(5x – 2) ≤ 0
⇒ (3x + 2) (5x – 2) ≤ 0
Co-efficient of x2 = 15 > 0,
Given Expression is ≤ 0
⇒ x lies between \(\frac{-2}{3}\) and \(\frac{2}{5}\)
i.e., \(\frac{-2}{3} \leq x \leq \frac{2}{5}\)

(ii) x2 – 2x + 1 < 0
Solution:
x2 – 2x + 1 < 0
⇒ (x – 1)2 < 0
There is no real value of ‘x’ satisfying this inequality
Solution set = Φ (or) Solution does not exist.

Question 2.
Solve the following inequations.
(i) \(\sqrt{3 x-8}\) < -2
Solution:
L.H.S. is positive and R.H.S. is negative.
∴ The given inequality holds for no real x.
Solution set = Φ (or) Solution does not exist.

(ii) \(\sqrt{-x^{2}+6 x-5}\) > 8 – 2x
Solution:
\(\sqrt{-x^{2}+6 x-5}\) > 8 – 2x
⇔ -x2 + 6x – 5 > 0
and (i) 8 – 2x < 0 (or) (ii) 8 – 2x ≥ 0
We have -x2 + 6x – 5 = -(x2 – 6x + 5) = -(x – 1) (x – 5)
Hence -x2 + 6x – 5 ≥ 0 ⇔ x ∈ [1, 5]
(i) -x2 + 6x – 5 ≥ 0 and 8 – 2x < 0
⇔ x ∈ [1, 5] and x > 4
⇔ x ∈ [4, 5] ………(1)
(ii) -x2 + 6x – 5 ≥ 0 and 8 – 2x ≥ 0
∵ \(\sqrt{\left(-x^{2}+6 x-5\right)}\) > 8 – 2x
⇔ -x2 + 6x – 5 > (8 – 2x)2 and 8 – 2x ≥ 0
⇔ -x2 + 6x – 5 > 64 + 4x2 – 32x and x ≤ 4
⇔ -5x2 + 38x – 69 > 0 and x ≤ 4
⇔ 5x2 – 38x + 69 < 0 and x ≤ 4
⇔ 5x2 – 15x – 23x + 69 < 0 and x ≤ 4
⇔ (5x – 23)(x – 3) < 0 and x ≤ 4
⇔ x ∈ (3, \(\frac{23}{5}\)) and x ≤ 4
⇔ x ∈ (3, \(\frac{23}{5}\)) ∩ (-∞, 4)
⇔ x ∈ (3, 4)
Hence the solution set of the given equation is x ∈ (4, 5) ∪ (3, 4)
⇒ x ∈ (3, 5) (or) 3 < x ≤ 5.
