If $\frac{1}{x^2}-\frac{1}{x}>0$, then $x$ lies in the interval |
$(-∞,0)$ $(-∞,0) ∪ (0,1)$ $(-∞,1)$ $(1,∞)$ |
$(-∞,0) ∪ (0,1)$ |
The correct answer is Option (2) → $(-∞,0) ∪ (0,1)$ ** Given: $\frac{1}{x^2}-\frac{1}{x}>0$ $\frac{1}{x^2}-\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1 - x}{x^2}$ So inequality becomes: $\frac{1 - x}{x^2} > 0$ $x^2 > 0$ for all $x \neq 0$ (always positive) Thus sign depends on numerator: $1 - x > 0 \Rightarrow x < 1$ And $x \neq 0$. Hence, the solution interval is $(-\infty,0)\cup(0,1)$. |
