    The range of the function \[f(x)={{\log }_{e}}(3{{x}^{2}}+4)\]is equal to

    A)  \[[{{\log }_{e}}2,\infty )\]                           

    B)  \[[{{\log }_{e}}3,\infty )\]

    C)  \[[2{{\log }_{e}}3,\infty )\]         

    D)         \[[0,\infty )\]

    E)  \[[2{{\log }_{e}}2,\infty )\]

    Correct Answer: E

    Solution :

    Function\[f(x)={{\log }_{e}}(3{{x}^{2}}+4)\] Let           \[y={{\log }_{e}}(3{{x}^{2}}+4)\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[3{{x}^{2}}+4={{e}^{y}}\]                 \[x=\sqrt{\frac{{{e}^{y}}-4}{3}}\]              Here,     \[\frac{{{e}^{y}}-4}{3}\ge 0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{e}^{y}}\ge 4\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[y\ge 2{{\log }_{e}}2\] Hence, the range of the function is\[[2{{\log }_{e}}2,\infty )\].
