Answer and worked solution

Official answer: C

Value of g=−8x2+6x−1g=-8x^2+6x-1 on [0,1]. It is in [0,18][0,\frac18] on [14,12][\frac14,\frac12], in [−1,0)[-1,0) on [0,14)∪(12,34][0,\frac14)\cup(\frac12,\frac34], in [−2,−1)[-2,-1) up to x=3+178x=\frac{3+\sqrt{17}}8, and in [−3,−2)[-3,-2) after that.

Integral.
−12−2(3+178−34)−3(1−3+178)=17−138.-\tfrac12-2\left(\tfrac{3+\sqrt{17}}8-\tfrac34\right)-3\left(1-\tfrac{3+\sqrt{17}}8\right)=\frac{\sqrt{17}-13}8.

(C)
