Let \(R\) be the interior region between the lines \(3 x-y+1=0\) and \(x+2 y-5=0\) containing the origin. The set of all values of \(a\), for which the points \(\left(a^2, a+1\right)\) lie in \(R\), is :

a

\((-3,-1) \cup\left(-\frac{1}{3}, 1\right)\)

b

\((-3,-1) \cup\left(\frac{1}{3}, 1\right)\)

c

\((-3,0) \cup\left(\frac{1}{3}, 1\right)\)

d

\((-3,0) \cup\left(\frac{2}{3}, 1\right)\)

✓ Correct answer: c)

\((-3,0) \cup\left(\frac{1}{3}, 1\right)\)

Explanation

\(3a−{a}^{2}>0\)

\({a}^{2}+2a−3<0\)

\(\Rightarrow \text{ }a\in \left(−3,0\right)\cup \left(\frac{1}{3},1\right)\)
