Find all real numbers K such that the inequality x^2 - 2(4K-1)x + 15K^2 - 2K- 7> 0 holds for all real x.

The inequality will be greater than zero

 if D is less than zero.

D<0

 

4(4k−1)2−4.1.(15k2−2k−7)<0

 

Simplifying this we get

 

K2−6k+8<0

 

(k−4)(k−2)<0

 

∴k lies in (2,4)

 

In this interval, only one integer is present i.e 3

 

∴k=3

Note that the question asks for real numbers - it doesn't restrict the solution to integers.
