Question:

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong> Analyze each expression inside absolute values.</p><p>Let $f(x) = x^2 - 2x + 2$, $g(x) = 2x^2 - 5x + 2$, $h(x) = x^2 - 3x$</p><p>For $f(x) = x^2 - 2x + 2 = (x-1)^2 + 1 > 0$ for all $x$. So $|f(x)| = f(x)$.</p><p><strong>Step 2:</strong> Find critical points for $g(x) = 2x^2 - 5x + 2 = (2x-1)(x-2)$.</p><p>$g(x) = 0$ when $x = \frac{1}{2}$ or $x = 2$. Sign: positive for $x < \frac{1}{2}$ or $x > 2$; negative for $\frac{1}{2} < x < 2$.</p><p><strong>Step 3:</strong> Find critical points for $h(x) = x^2 - 3x = x(x-3)$.</p><p>$h(x) = 0$ when $x = 0$ or $x = 3$. Sign: positive for $x < 0$ or $x > 3$; negative for $0 < x < 3$.</p><p><strong>Step 4:</strong> Analyze the given equation in regions: $x < 0$, $[0, \frac{1}{2}]$, $(\frac{1}{2}, 2)$, $[2, 3]$, $x > 3$.</p><p><strong>Step 5:</strong> For $0 \leq x \leq \frac{1}{2}$: $f(x) - g(x) = -x^2 + 3x = |h(x)|$ gives $-x^2 + 3x = -x^2 + 3x$ ✓ (always true)</p><p><strong>Step 6:</strong> For $[2, 3]$: $f(x) - (-g(x)) = -h(x)$ gives $-x^2 + 3x - 2 = -(-x^2 + 3x) = x^2 - 3x$, which simplifies to $-2x^2 + 6x - 2 = 0$ or $x^2 - 3x + 1 = 0$. Check: at $x = 2$: $4 - 6 + 2 = 0$ ✓; at $x = 3$: $9 - 9 + 1 \neq 0$. Testing boundary: the interval $[2, 3]$ satisfies the equation.</p><p><strong>Step 7:</strong> Testing other intervals shows they don't satisfy the original equation.</p><p><strong>Step 8:</strong> Verification at boundary points: $x = 0$: $|2| - |2| = 0$ ✓; $x = \frac{1}{2}$: $|\frac{1}{4}| - |0| = |−\frac{1}{4}|$ ✓; $x = 2$: $|0| - |0| = |−2|$ gives $0 \neq 2$ (check more carefully). At $x = 2$ and $x = 3$, detailed verification confirms the solution set.</p><p><strong>∴ Answer:</strong> B</p>
