(B)4 should be correct answer!
(only read futher if above answer is correct)
HINT:solve 2a2 + a + 1>3a2 – 4a + 1

waise i don't know yaar i might be wrong too...but still i think my logic is correct so u see i would blame the answer only until someone else shows how (c) is correct!

but buddy why is it tht so many questions and answers from u turn out to be wrong?
