The correct Answer is:
To solve the inequality \[ \frac{1}{x^2 + x} \leq \frac{1}{2x^2 + 2x + 3} \] we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the inequality We start by rewriting the inequality: \[ \frac{1}{x^2 + x} - \frac{1}{2x^2 + 2x + 3} \leq 0 \] ### Step 2: Find a common denominator The common denominator of the two fractions is \((x^2 + x)(2x^2 + 2x + 3)\). Thus, we can rewrite the inequality as: \[ \frac{(2x^2 + 2x + 3) - (x^2 + x)}{(x^2 + x)(2x^2 + 2x + 3)} \leq 0 \] ### Step 3: Simplify the numerator Now, we simplify the numerator: \[ 2x^2 + 2x + 3 - x^2 - x = x^2 + x + 3 \] So the inequality becomes: \[ \frac{x^2 + x + 3}{(x^2 + x)(2x^2 + 2x + 3)} \leq 0 \] ### Step 4: Analyze the numerator and denominator 1. **Numerator**: The quadratic \(x^2 + x + 3\) has a discriminant of \(b^2 - 4ac = 1^2 - 4(1)(3) = 1 - 12 = -11\), which is less than 0. Therefore, \(x^2 + x + 3 > 0\) for all \(x\). 2. **Denominator**: The denominator is \((x^2 + x)(2x^2 + 2x + 3)\). The term \(2x^2 + 2x + 3\) is always positive (as shown above). We need to analyze \(x^2 + x\): - \(x^2 + x = x(x + 1)\) is zero at \(x = 0\) and \(x = -1\). - It is positive for \(x < -1\) and \(x > 0\), and negative for \(-1 < x < 0\). ### Step 5: Set up the inequality Since the numerator is always positive, the sign of the entire fraction is determined by the denominator: \[ \frac{x^2 + x + 3}{(x^2 + x)(2x^2 + 2x + 3)} \leq 0 \implies (x^2 + x) \text{ must be negative.} \] ### Step 6: Solve for the intervals The denominator \(x^2 + x < 0\) gives us the interval: \[ -1 < x < 0 \] ### Step 7: Exclude points where the denominator is zero At \(x = -1\) and \(x = 0\), the denominator becomes zero, so we exclude these points from our solution. ### Final Solution Thus, the solution to the inequality is: \[ x \in (-1, 0) \]
