JEE 2023 — Mathematics PYQ
JEE | Mathematics | 2023If the domain of the function f(x)=1+x2[x], where [x] is the greatest integer ≤x, is [2,6), then its range is:
Choose the correct answer:
- A.
(265,52]
(Correct Answer) - B.
(375,52]−{299,10927,8918,539}
(265,52]
Explanation
Solution
Since the domain is [2,6), we evaluate the function in integer intervals:
-
For x∈[2,3), [x]=2⟹f(x)=1+x22. Range: (102,52]=(51,52].
-
For x∈[3,4), [x]=3⟹f(x)=1+x23. Range: (173,103].
-
For x∈[4,5), [x]=4⟹f(x)=1+x24. Range: (264,174]=(132,174].
-
For x∈[5,6), [x]=5⟹f(x)=1+x25. Range: (375,265].
Combining these, the overall range is the union of these intervals.
-
Final Range: (375,52].
-
Correct Answer: Option (3).
