The correct answer is: -,

Let fx=3x-2x2+1

Differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get

f'x=3-4x

For extreme value,

f'x=0

 3-4x=0

 x=34

So,

f34=k

 3×34-2×916+1=k

 36-18+16=k

 k=34

So, 34x2+2x+1>0      i

But discriminant of 34x2+2x+1 is D=4-136=-132<0

And, coefficient of x2 is greater than zero, so i is true for all xR, hence required solution is -,.
