    The product of two consecutive even numbers is more than twice their sum by more than 34. Which of the following is the range of values that the larger of the can take?

    A)  \[n>14\]or \[n<-2\]       

    B)  \[-12<n<+12\]

    C)  \[n\ge 10,n\le -\,4\]

    D)  \[-15<n<+15\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    (c): Let smaller no be n, \[\therefore \] greater number\[=n+2\] \[\Rightarrow n(n+2)>[2(n+n+2)]+34\] \[\Rightarrow {{n}^{2}}+2n>4n+38>0\Rightarrow {{n}^{2}}-2n-38>0\] \[\Rightarrow roots\,\,are-5.24\,\,and\,\,7.24\] \[\therefore \] n (being an even integer) \[\in \left( -\infty ,-6 \right)\cup \left( 8,\infty  \right)\] \[\therefore \left( n+2 \right)\in \left( \infty ,-4 \right)\cup \left( 10,\infty  \right)\]
