The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the function \( f(x) = ||x^2 - 4x + 3| - 2| \) and determine the validity of the given statements regarding the solutions of the equation \( f(x) = m \). ### Step 1: Simplify the inner expression First, we simplify the expression inside the outer absolute value. 1. The quadratic \( x^2 - 4x + 3 \) can be factored as: \[ x^2 - 4x + 3 = (x - 1)(x - 3) \] This quadratic has roots at \( x = 1 \) and \( x = 3 \). ### Step 2: Analyze the quadratic 2. The quadratic opens upwards (since the coefficient of \( x^2 \) is positive) and is zero at \( x = 1 \) and \( x = 3 \). The vertex of the parabola occurs at \( x = 2 \), where: \[ f(2) = 2^2 - 4 \cdot 2 + 3 = 1 \] Thus, the minimum value of \( |x^2 - 4x + 3| \) is 0 (at \( x = 1 \) and \( x = 3 \)) and the maximum value occurs at the vertex. ### Step 3: Determine the range of the inner absolute value 3. The maximum value of \( |x^2 - 4x + 3| \) occurs at the vertex \( x = 2 \): \[ |1| = 1 \] Therefore, \( |x^2 - 4x + 3| \) ranges from 0 to \( \infty \). ### Step 4: Analyze the outer absolute value 4. Now we analyze \( ||x^2 - 4x + 3| - 2| \): - For \( |x^2 - 4x + 3| < 2 \) (which occurs between the roots), the expression will be negative, so we take the negative: \[ ||x^2 - 4x + 3| - 2| = 2 - |x^2 - 4x + 3| \] - For \( |x^2 - 4x + 3| \geq 2 \), the expression remains positive: \[ ||x^2 - 4x + 3| - 2| = |x^2 - 4x + 3| - 2 \] ### Step 5: Determine the critical points 5. The critical points occur at \( x = 1 \) and \( x = 3 \), where \( |x^2 - 4x + 3| = 0 \). The function \( f(x) \) will equal 2 at points where the inner expression equals 2. ### Step 6: Analyze the statements Now we analyze the statements based on the graph and the behavior of \( f(x) \): 1. **First Statement**: \( f(x) = m \) has exactly two real solutions of different signs for all \( m > 2 \). - **Correct**: The graph of \( f(x) \) will intersect the horizontal line \( y = m \) at two points. 2. **Second Statement**: \( f(x) = m \) has exactly two real solutions for all \( m \) in \( [0, 2) \). - **Correct**: The function will cross the line \( y = m \) twice in this range. 3. **Third Statement**: \( f(x) = m \) has no solution for all \( m < 0 \). - **Correct**: Since \( f(x) \) is always non-negative, there are no solutions for negative \( m \). 4. **Fourth Statement**: \( f(x) = m \) has exactly four distinct solutions for all \( m \) in \( (0, 1) \). - **Correct**: The graph will intersect the horizontal line \( y = m \) four times in this interval. ### Conclusion All statements are correct.
