All the values of m for which both roots of the equations x2 − 2mx + m2 − 1 = 0 are greater than −2 but less than 4, lie in the interval

  • −2 < m < 0

  • m > 3

  • −1 < m < 3 

  • −1 < m < 3 


C.

−1 < m < 3 

Equation x2 − 2mx + m2 − 1 = 0
(x − m)2 − 1 = 0
(x − m + 1) (x − m − 1) = 0
x = m − 1, m + 1 − 2 < m − 1 and m + 1 < 4

m > − 1 and m < 3 − 1 < m < 3.
