The correct Answer is:
To solve the inequality \((\lambda^2 + \lambda - 2)x^2 + (\lambda + 2)x < 1\) for all \(x \in \mathbb{R}\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the Inequality We start by rewriting the inequality: \[ (\lambda^2 + \lambda - 2)x^2 + (\lambda + 2)x - 1 < 0 \] This is a quadratic inequality in \(x\). ### Step 2: Identify Coefficients In the quadratic expression \(Ax^2 + Bx + C\), we identify: - \(A = \lambda^2 + \lambda - 2\) - \(B = \lambda + 2\) - \(C = -1\) ### Step 3: Conditions for the Quadratic to be Negative For the quadratic to be less than zero for all \(x\), the following conditions must be satisfied: 1. \(A < 0\) (the parabola opens downwards) 2. The discriminant \(D < 0\) (the quadratic has no real roots) ### Step 4: Solve \(A < 0\) We need to solve: \[ \lambda^2 + \lambda - 2 < 0 \] Factoring gives: \[ (\lambda + 2)(\lambda - 1) < 0 \] Now we find the critical points: \(\lambda = -2\) and \(\lambda = 1\). Using a sign chart: - For \(\lambda < -2\), the product is positive. - For \(-2 < \lambda < 1\), the product is negative. - For \(\lambda > 1\), the product is positive. Thus, the solution for \(A < 0\) is: \[ -2 < \lambda < 1 \] ### Step 5: Solve the Discriminant Condition \(D < 0\) The discriminant \(D\) is given by: \[ D = B^2 - 4AC = (\lambda + 2)^2 - 4(\lambda^2 + \lambda - 2)(-1) \] Calculating \(D\): \[ D = (\lambda + 2)^2 + 4(\lambda^2 + \lambda - 2) \] Expanding this: \[ D = \lambda^2 + 4\lambda + 4 + 4\lambda^2 + 4\lambda - 8 \] \[ D = 5\lambda^2 + 8\lambda - 4 \] We need \(D < 0\): \[ 5\lambda^2 + 8\lambda - 4 < 0 \] Finding the roots using the quadratic formula: \[ \lambda = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} = \frac{-8 \pm \sqrt{64 + 80}}{10} = \frac{-8 \pm \sqrt{144}}{10} = \frac{-8 \pm 12}{10} \] Calculating the roots: \[ \lambda_1 = \frac{4}{10} = \frac{2}{5}, \quad \lambda_2 = \frac{-20}{10} = -2 \] Using a sign chart for \(5\lambda^2 + 8\lambda - 4\): - For \(\lambda < -2\), the expression is positive. - For \(-2 < \lambda < \frac{2}{5}\), the expression is negative. - For \(\lambda > \frac{2}{5}\), the expression is positive. Thus, the solution for \(D < 0\) is: \[ -2 < \lambda < \frac{2}{5} \] ### Step 6: Combine the Results Now we have two intervals: 1. From \(A < 0\): \(-2 < \lambda < 1\) 2. From \(D < 0\): \(-2 < \lambda < \frac{2}{5}\) The common interval is: \[ -2 < \lambda < \frac{2}{5} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \(\lambda\) belongs to the interval: \[ \boxed{(-2, \frac{2}{5})} \]
