Hard MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2025

Let $f, g:(1, \infty) \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be defined as $f(x)=\frac{2 x+3}{5 x+2}$ and $g(x)=\frac{2-3 x}{1-x}$. If the range of the function fog: $[2,4] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is $[\alpha, \beta]$, then $\frac{1}{\beta-\alpha}$ is equal to

  1. A 56 Correct answer
  2. B 2
  3. C 29
  4. D 68

Solution

<p>$$\begin{aligned} & g(2)=4, g(4)=\frac{10}{3} \\ & f \text { is decreasing in }\left(\frac{10}{3}, 4\right) \\ & \therefore \quad \alpha=f(4)=\frac{1}{2} \\ & \beta=f\left(\frac{10}{3}\right)=\frac{29}{56} \\ & \frac{1}{\beta-\alpha}=\frac{1}{\frac{29}{56}-\frac{1}{2}}=56 \end{aligned}$$</p>
