If $|x-1|+\left|x^2+x+1\right|=\left|x^2+2 x\right|$, then x belongs to:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Above is possible if
$(x-1)\left(x^2+x+1\right) \geq 0$ ......(1)
Now for $x^2+x+1$
Discriminant = 1 - 4 = -3 < 0
∴ $x^2+x+1>0 ~\forall ~ x \in R$ .......(2)
From (1) and (2), $(x-1) \geq 0 \Rightarrow x \in[1, \infty)$
Hence (2) is the correct answer.
