=>

We have 4f(x)+6f(1-x)=2x^2 when we multiply the equation in the original condition by 2.
If we substitute x by 1-x, then we have 2f(1-x)+3f(x) = (1-x)^2.
If we multiply the equation by 3, we have 6f(1-x)+9f(x) = 3(1-x)^2.
If we subtract equations [4f(x)+6f(1-x)=2x^2] - [6f(1-x)+9f(x) = 3(1-x)^2], then we have -5f(x) = 2x^2 - 3(1-x)^2, -5f(x) = 2x^2 - 3(1-2x+x^2), -5f(x) = 2x^2 - 3 + 6x - 3x^2, -5f(x) = -x^2 + 6x - 3 or f(x) = (1/5)(x^2-6x+3).

Therefore, the answer is D.
