Find the values of $a,b in Bbb R$ (if exists) such that $$-5 le fracx^2+ax+bx^2+2x+3 le 4$$ for all $x in Bbb R$
My try:
I noticed that $x^2+2x+3 > 0$, so i can divide the inequality in 2 parts:
$-5(x^2+2x+3)le x^2+ax+b $ $space$ $land$ $space$ $4(x^2+2x+3) ge x^2+ax+b$
After that i tried to manipulate the discriminant of both inequalities (both are quadratic equations) but i found nothing.
Any hints?

Let $a,binBbbR$ be such that the inequalities hold. Then clearing denominators as you did yields the inequalities
$$6x^2+(a+10)x+(b+15)geq0,$$
$$3x^2+(8-a)x+(12-b)geq0,$$
for all $xinBbbR$. This means both polynomials in $x$ have nonpositive discriminants, i.e. that
$$(a+10)^2-24(b+15)leq0,$$
$$(8-a)^2-12(12-b)leq0.$$
Isolating $b$ from both inequalities yields
$$frac(a+10)^224-15leq bleq 12-frac(8-a)^212.$$
Moreover, a bit of algebra shows that for $a$ we then have
$$3a^2-12a-532leq0.$$
By the quadratic formula this is equivalent to
$$|a-2|leq4sqrttfrac343.$$
Can you finish from here?
For completeness, a nice and grainy plot of the solution set in the $(a,b)$-plane:

By the quadratic formula this is equivalent to
