Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) None of these

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(x^{2}-m x+4=0\) \(\alpha, \beta \in[1,5]\) \(\text { (1) } \quad \mathrm{D}>0 \Rightarrow \mathrm{m}^{2}-16>0\) \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{m} \in(-\infty,-4) \cup(4, \infty)\) \((2)\) \(\quad f(1) \geq 0 \Rightarrow 5-m \geq 0 \Rightarrow m \in(-\infty, 5]\) \((3)\)…
