Concept: Dispersion without Deviation
Solution: The condition "dispersion without deviation" means the net deviation produced by

74) ⇒
Let |z| = t
–4 < t – Þ
Now, t2 + 4t – 5 > 0 t2 – 4t – 5 < 0
(t + 5) (t – 1) > 0 (t – 5) (t + 1) < 0
⇒ t ∈ [1,∞) t Î [0, 5] (as t is positive)
∴ t ∈ [1,5]

75) f (x) = (x2 – 1)n (x2 + x + 1)

f ′ (x) = 2 n (x2 – 1)n – 1 x (x2 + x + 1) + (x2 – 1)n (2 x + 1)
= (x2 – 1)n–1 [2 n x3 + 2 n x2 + 2 n x + (x2 – 1) (2 x + 1) ]
= (x2 – 1)n–1 [ 2 n x3 + 2 n x2 + 2 n x + 2 x3 – 2 x + x2 – 1]
= (x2 – 1)n–1 [ (2 n + 2) x3 + (2 n + 1) x2 + (2 n – 2) x – 1 ]
f (x) must change sign at x = 1 for extremum . Hence we get (C).
