Solution

The correct option is D a[0,1]
Let x2+2x+ax2+4x+3a=k

x2+2x+a=k(x2+4x+3a)

x2+2x+ak(x2+4x+3a)=0

(1k)x2+(24k)x+(a3ka)=0

Since xR,D0

(24k)24×(1k)(a3ka)0

4+16k216k4(a3kaak+3k2a)0

4+16k216k4a+12ka+4ak12k2a0

1+4k24ka+3ka+ak3k2a0

k2(43a)+k(4a4)+1a0

43a>0

3a<4

a<43

D<0

(4a4)24(43a)(1a)0

16(a1)24(43a)(1a)0

(1a)(4(1a)4+3a)0

(1a)(a)0

(a1)a0

a[0,1]
