JEE Main 2024 — 9 April, Shift 1 — Question 23

Let the set of all positive values of λ\lambda, for which the point of local minimum of the function

(1+x(λ2−x2))\left(1+x\left(\lambda^{2}-x^{2}\right)\right) satisfies x2+x+2x2+5x+6<0\frac{x^{2}+x+2}{x^{2}+5 x+6}<0, be (α,β)(\alpha, \beta). Then α2+β2\alpha^{2}+\beta^{2} is equal to \qquad

Answer: 39

Numerical answer — enter this value.

Step-by-step solution

x2+x+2x2+5x+6<0\frac{x^{2}+x+2}{x^{2}+5 x+6}<0

⇒1(x+2)(x+3)<0\Rightarrow \frac{1}{(x+2)(x+3)}<0

figure

f(x)=1+x(λ2−x2)f(x)=1+x\left(\lambda^{2}-x^{2}\right)

Finding local minima f′(x)=(λ2−x2)+(−2x)⋅xf^{\prime}(x)=\left(\lambda^{2}-x^{2}\right)+(-2 x) \cdot x

Put f′(x)=0\mathrm{f}^{\prime}(\mathrm{x})=0

⇒λ2=3x2\Rightarrow \lambda^{2}=3 \mathrm{x}^{2}

⇒x=±λ3\Rightarrow \mathrm{x}= \pm \frac{\lambda}{\sqrt{3}}

Local min Local max We want local min ⇒x=−λ3\Rightarrow x=\frac{-\lambda}{\sqrt{3}}

from (1) x∈(−3,−2)x \in(-3,-2)

−3<−λ3<−2-3<\frac{-\lambda}{\sqrt{3}}<-2

⇒−∫∞2dttt2−2\Rightarrow-\int_{\infty}^{2} \frac{\mathrm{dt}}{\mathrm{t} \sqrt{\mathrm{t}^{2}-2}}

33>λ>233 \sqrt{3}>\lambda>2 \sqrt{3}

α=23,β=33\alpha=2 \sqrt{3}, \beta=3 \sqrt{3}

⇒−∫∞2tdtt2t2−2\Rightarrow-\int_{\infty}^{2} \frac{\mathrm{tdt}}{\mathrm{t}^{2} \sqrt{\mathrm{t}^{2}-2}}

α2+β2=12+27=39\alpha^{2}+\beta^{2}=12+27=39
