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
