Comprehension Passage

Let f(x)=(1−x)2sin⁡2x+x2f(x) = (1 - x)^2 \sin^2x + x^2 for all x∈Rx \in \mathbb{R}, and let g(x)=∫1x(2(t−1)t+1−ln⁡t)f(t) dtg(x) = \int_1^x \left( \frac{2(t - 1)}{t + 1} - \ln t \right) f(t) \, dt for all x∈(1,∞)x \in (1, \infty).

Consider the statements :

P\mathbf{P} : There exists some x∈Rx \in \mathbb{R} such that f(x)+2x=2(1+x2)f(x) + 2x = 2(1 + x^2)

Q\mathbf{Q} : There exists some x∈Rx \in \mathbb{R} such that 2f(x)+1=2x(1+x)2f(x) + 1 = 2x(1 + x)

Then

Options

A

both P\mathbf{P} and Q\mathbf{Q} are true

B

P\mathbf{P} is true and Q\mathbf{Q} is false

C

P\mathbf{P} is false and Q\mathbf{Q} is true

Correct
D

both P\mathbf{P} and Q\mathbf{Q} are false

Step-by-Step Solution

To determine the truth value of statements P\mathbf{P} and Q\mathbf{Q}, we analyze each statement individually.

The given function is: f(x)=(1−x)2sin⁡2x+x2,∀x∈Rf(x) = (1 - x)^2 \sin^2 x + x^2, \quad \forall x \in \mathbb{R}


Analysis of Statement P\mathbf{P}:

The equation given in statement P\mathbf{P} is: f(x)+2x=2(1+x2)f(x) + 2x = 2(1 + x^2)

Substitute the definition of f(x)f(x) into the equation: (1−x)2sin⁡2x+x2+2x=2+2x2(1 - x)^2 \sin^2 x + x^2 + 2x = 2 + 2x^2

Rearranging the terms: (1−x)2sin⁡2x=x2−2x+2(1 - x)^2 \sin^2 x = x^2 - 2x + 2 (x−1)2sin⁡2x=(x−1)2+1(x - 1)^2 \sin^2 x = (x - 1)^2 + 1 (x−1)2(sin⁡2x−1)=1(x - 1)^2 (\sin^2 x - 1) = 1 −(x−1)2cos⁡2x=1-(x - 1)^2 \cos^2 x = 1 (x−1)2cos⁡2x=−1(x - 1)^2 \cos^2 x = -1

For any real number xx, (x−1)2≥0(x - 1)^2 \ge 0 and cos⁡2x≥0\cos^2 x \ge 0, which implies that the left-hand side is always non-negative: (x−1)2cos⁡2x≥0(x - 1)^2 \cos^2 x \ge 0

Since the right-hand side is −1<0-1 < 0, there exists no real value of xx satisfying this equation.

Hence, Statement P\mathbf{P} is FALSE.


Analysis of Statement Q\mathbf{Q}:

The equation given in statement Q\mathbf{Q} is: 2f(x)+1=2x(1+x)2f(x) + 1 = 2x(1 + x)

Substitute the definition of f(x)f(x) into the equation: 2((1−x)2sin⁡2x+x2)+1=2x+2x22\left((1 - x)^2 \sin^2 x + x^2\right) + 1 = 2x + 2x^2 2(1−x)2sin⁡2x+2x2+1=2x+2x22(1 - x)^2 \sin^2 x + 2x^2 + 1 = 2x + 2x^2 2(1−x)2sin⁡2x+1−2x=02(1 - x)^2 \sin^2 x + 1 - 2x = 0

Define a continuous function h(x)h(x) on R\mathbb{R} as: h(x)=2(1−x)2sin⁡2x+1−2xh(x) = 2(1 - x)^2 \sin^2 x + 1 - 2x

Let us evaluate h(x)h(x) at x=0x = 0 and x=1x = 1:

  • For x=0x = 0: h(0)=2(1−0)2sin⁡2(0)+1−2(0)=0+1−0=1>0h(0) = 2(1 - 0)^2 \sin^2(0) + 1 - 2(0) = 0 + 1 - 0 = 1 > 0
  • For x=1x = 1: h(1)=2(1−1)2sin⁡2(1)+1−2(1)=0+1−2=−1<0h(1) = 2(1 - 1)^2 \sin^2(1) + 1 - 2(1) = 0 + 1 - 2 = -1 < 0

Since h(x)h(x) is continuous on the closed interval [0,1][0, 1] and h(0)⋅h(1)<0h(0) \cdot h(1) < 0, by the Intermediate Value Theorem, there exists at least one c∈(0,1)c \in (0, 1) such that h(c)=0h(c) = 0.

Hence, there exists some x∈Rx \in \mathbb{R} such that 2f(x)+1=2x(1+x)2f(x) + 1 = 2x(1 + x), which means Statement Q\mathbf{Q} is TRUE.


Conclusion:

P\mathbf{P} is false and Q\mathbf{Q} is true, which corresponds to Option (C).
