If non-zero real numbersbandcare such thatmin fx>max gx, wherefx=x2+2bx+2c2andgx=-x2-2cx+b2, x∈R; thencblies in the interval

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Given fx=x2+2bx+2c2 and gx=-x2-2cx+b2

For finding the minimum value of f(x),

f'x=2x+2b=0

⇒x=-b

Also, f"x=2

⇒f"-b=2>0

So, fx has minimum value at x=-b

Hence, fmin=b2-2b2+2c2

      ⇒fmin=2c2-b2

Similarly, for finding the maximum value of g(x)

g'x=-2x-2c=0

                        ⇒x=-c

Also, g"x=-2

g"-c=-2<0

So, gx has maximum value at x=-c.

Hence, gmax=-c2+2c2+b2

      ⇒gmax=c2+b2

Given fmin>gmax⇒2c2-b2>c2+b2⇒c2-2b2>0 ⇒c-2bc+2b>0

⇒cb-2cb+2>0

Using wavy curve method, we get cb<-2 or cb>2 

∴cb∈2, ∞.
