If $f(x)=[x]^{2}-5[x]+6=0$, where $[x]$ denotes greatest integer function then $x \in$

If $f(x)=[x]^{2}-5[x]+6=0$, where $[x]$ denotes greatest integer function then $x \in$
  1. $(2,4]$
  2. $[2,4]$
  3. $[2,4)$
  4. $(2,4)$

Solution

We have, $[x]^{2}-5[x]+6=0$ $\therefore([x]-3)([x]-2)=0 \Rightarrow[x]=2,3$ For $[x]=2, x \in[2,3)$ and for $[x]=3, x \in[3,4)$ $\therefore \quad x \in[2,4)$
