Detailed Solution

f:RR;f(x)=x3+(a+2)x2+3ax+10  is one-one.

Equational process in this is difficult, we use the fact that f(x)  is one-one in R , then it must be either increasing in R  or decreasing in R

f'(x)=3x2+2(a+2)x+3a>0xR

                                                             <0xR

As coefficient of x2=3>0 , f'(x)  cannot be negative for all xR

3x2+2(a+2)x+3a>0xR

4(a+2)236a<0

a25a+4<0  i.e., (a1)(a4)<0

1<a<4  i.e., a(1,4) .
