  4. D 5
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 3

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We have, \(9 x-2 < (x+2)^2 < 12 x-3\) \(\begin{aligned} & \text { Case I } 9 x-2 < x^2+4 x+4 \\ & \qquad x^2-5 x+6>0 \Rightarrow(x-3)(x-2)>0\end{aligned}\) \(x \in(-\infty, 2) \cup(3, \infty)\) ...(i) Case II \(x^2+4 x+4 < 12 x-3\) \(x^2-8 x+7 < 0 \Rightarrow(x-7)(x-1) < 0\)…
