Analyzing the Setup

The function under investigation is defined as:
This function exhibits rapid oscillations as approaches the origin. To analyze its behavior, we must determine the points where the function vanishes.

The Hunt for the Roots

To find the roots of for , we solve the equation:
Since $x^2 eq 0$ in this domain, the condition simplifies to . Recalling the general solution for the sine function, we set the argument to an integer multiple of :
Canceling and rearranging for , we obtain the roots:

The Inequality Dance

We evaluate the interval to determine the number of roots contained within it. We set up the following inequality:
Taking the reciprocal of all parts reverses the inequality signs:
Squaring the terms yields the range for the integer :
Given the approximations and , we seek integers such that . This implies .
The total number of roots is calculated as . Since , the statement is true.

Why the Others Fail

For Option A, the interval implies , or . Because this set of integers is bounded, there are not infinitely many solutions.
For Option B, the interval implies , leading to . There are exactly 9 solutions, contradicting the claim that there are no solutions.
Finally, for Option C, the interval requires , or . Since there are infinitely many such integers, the set of solutions is infinite, rendering the claim of a finite set false.
