The correct Answer is:
To solve the inequality \[ \frac{(x+2)(x^2-2x+1)}{-4 + 3x - x^2} \geq 0, \] we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Factor the numerator and the denominator The numerator can be factored as follows: 1. Recognize that \(x^2 - 2x + 1\) is a perfect square: \[ x^2 - 2x + 1 = (x - 1)^2. \] Thus, the numerator becomes: \[ (x + 2)(x - 1)^2. \] For the denominator, rewrite it: \[ -4 + 3x - x^2 = - (x^2 - 3x + 4). \] Now, we will analyze the quadratic \(x^2 - 3x + 4\). ### Step 2: Analyze the denominator To determine the sign of \(x^2 - 3x + 4\), we can find its discriminant: \[ D = b^2 - 4ac = (-3)^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 4 = 9 - 16 = -7. \] Since the discriminant is negative, the quadratic \(x^2 - 3x + 4\) has no real roots and is always positive (as the coefficient of \(x^2\) is positive). Thus, \[ -(x^2 - 3x + 4) < 0 \text{ for all } x. \] ### Step 3: Rewrite the inequality Now we can rewrite the inequality: \[ \frac{(x + 2)(x - 1)^2}{-(x^2 - 3x + 4)} \geq 0 \implies (x + 2)(x - 1)^2 \leq 0. \] ### Step 4: Find the critical points The critical points occur when the numerator is zero: 1. \(x + 2 = 0 \implies x = -2\). 2. \((x - 1)^2 = 0 \implies x = 1\). ### Step 5: Test intervals around the critical points We will test the sign of \((x + 2)(x - 1)^2\) in the intervals determined by the critical points: 1. **Interval \((- \infty, -2)\)**: Choose \(x = -3\): \[ (-3 + 2)(-3 - 1)^2 = (-1)(16) < 0. \] 2. **Interval \((-2, 1)\)**: Choose \(x = 0\): \[ (0 + 2)(0 - 1)^2 = (2)(1) > 0. \] 3. **Interval \((1, \infty)\)**: Choose \(x = 2\): \[ (2 + 2)(2 - 1)^2 = (4)(1) > 0. \] ### Step 6: Determine the solution set The expression \((x + 2)(x - 1)^2\) is less than or equal to zero in the interval \((- \infty, -2]\) and at \(x = 1\) (where it is zero). Therefore, the solution set is: \[ x \in (-\infty, -2] \cup \{1\}. \] ### Final Answer Thus, the solution to the inequality is: \[ x \in (-\infty, -2] \cup \{1\}. \]

To solve the inequality \[ \frac{(x+2)(x^2-2x+1)}{-4 + 3x - x^2} \geq 0, \] we will follow these steps: ...
