MCQ
Domain of the function $f(x) = {\sin ^{ - 1}}(1 + 3x + 2{x^2})$ is
  • A
    $( - \infty ,\;\infty )$
  • B
    $( - 1,\;1)$
  • $\left[ { - \frac{3}{2},\;0} \right]$
  • D
    $\left( { - \infty ,\;\frac{{ - 1}}{2}} \right) \cup (2,\;\infty )$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\left[ { - \frac{3}{2},\;0} \right]$
c
(c) $ - 1 \le 1 + 3x + 2{x^2} \le 1$

$Case I :$  $2{x^2} + 3x + 1 \ge - 1$; $2{x^2} + 3x + 2 \ge 0$

$x = \frac{{ - 3 \pm \sqrt {9 - 16} }}{6}$ $ = \frac{{ - 3 \pm i\sqrt 7 }}{6}$ (imaginary).

$Case II :$  $2{x^2} + 3x + 1 \le 1$

==> $2{x^2} + 3x \le 0$ ==> $2x\,\left( {x + \frac{3}{2}} \right) \le 0$

==> $\frac{{ - 3}}{2} \le x \le 0$ ==> $x \in \left[ { - \frac{3}{2},\,\,0} \right]$

In $case I$, we get imaginary value hence, rejected

$\therefore$ Domain of function = $\left[ {\frac{{ - 3}}{2},\,0} \right]$.
