    If \[x\]is real, then the value of \[\frac{x+2}{2{{x}^{2}}+3x+6}\]

    A) \[\left( \frac{1}{13},\frac{1}{3} \right)\]                

    B)                   \[\left[ -\frac{1}{13},\frac{1}{3} \right]\]                              

    C)                   \[\left( -\frac{1}{3},\frac{1}{13} \right)\]              

    D)                   none of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Let          \[y=\frac{x+2}{2{{x}^{2}}+3x+6}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[y(2{{x}^{2}}+3x+6)=x+2\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[2y\,{{x}^{2}}+(3y-1)x+6y-2=0\] Since, \[x\]is real,            therefore discriminant \[{{b}^{4}}-4ac\ge 0\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{(3y-1)}^{2}}-4(2y)(6y-2)\ge 0\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[(3y-1)[3y-1-16y]\ge 0\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[(13y+1)(3y-1)\le 0\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[-\frac{1}{13}\le y\le \frac{1}{3}\] \[\therefore \]Maximum value of \[y\] is \[\frac{1}{3}\]and minimum value is \[-\frac{1}{13}.\]
