Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 81

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For the quadratic expression \(ax^2 + 2\sqrt{2}bx + c > 0\) for all \(x \in \mathbb{R}\), the leading coefficient must be positive and the discriminant must be negative. Since \(a \in \{1, 2, 3, 4\}\), the condition \(a > 0\) is always satisfied. The discriminant condition is:…
