If the mapping f(x)=ax+bf(x) = ax + b , a<0a < 0 and maps [−1,1][-1, 1] onto [0,2][0, 2] , then for all values of θ\theta , A=cos⁡2θ+sin⁡4θA = \cos^2 \theta + \sin^4 \theta is such that a. f(14)≤A≤f(0)f\left(\frac{1}{4}\right) \le A \le f(0) b. f(0)≤A≤f(−2)f(0) \le A \le f(-2) c. f(13)≤A≤f(0)f\left(\frac{1}{3}\right) \le A \le f(0) d. f(−1)<A≤f(−2)f(-1) < A \le f(-2)
