All the values of $m$ for which both roots of the equations $x^2-2 m x+m^2-1=0$ are greater than $-2$ but less than 4 , lie in the interval
-
−2 < m < 0
-
m > 3
-
−1 < m < 3
-
1 < m < 4
Solution
Equation $x^2-2 m x+m^2-1=0$
$
\begin{aligned}
& (x-m)^2-1=0 \\
& (x-m+1)(x-m-1)=0 \\
& x=m-1, m+1 \\
& -2 < m-1 \text { and } m+1 < 4
\end{aligned}
$
$m>-1$ and $m < 3$
$-1 < m < 3$
