i hope u got till dis much....
[x]([x]2-2)=-1
now observe that both [x]and ([x]2-2) will be integers for all real values of x...
since their product is -1 they can only be 1,-1 or -1,1 respectively...
so x should be in the range -1 to 1
but if u put -1 in the equation [x] and ([x]2-2) both will be negative and their product will bcum positive....
so [x] shud be 1....
therefore x=[1,2)
