Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\left[\frac{1}{3}, 3\right]\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(y=\frac{x^2+x+1}{x^2-x+1}\) \(\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow y x^2-x y+y=x^2+x+1 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad(y-1) x^2-(y+1) x+(y-1)=0\end{aligned}\) For real \(x\), \(D \geq 0\)…
