The set of all real values of \(x\) such that \(f(x)=\sqrt{\frac{[x]-1}{[x]^2-[x]-6}}\) is a real valued function is

  1. A \([1, \infty)\)
  2. B \((-\infty,-2) \cup[4, \infty)\)
  3. C \([-1,3)\)
  4. D \([-1,2) \cup[4, \infty)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \([-1,2) \cup[4, \infty)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(y=[x]\). For \(f(x)\) to be real, \(\frac{y-1}{y^2-y-6} \ge 0\). \(\frac{y-1}{(y-3)(y+2)} \ge 0\). Critical points for \(y\): \(-2, 1, 3\). Denominator must be non-zero. Solution for \(y\): \(y \in (-2, 1] \cup (3, \infty)\). Since \(y=[x]\) must be an integer:…
