FX equal to X square + bx + c has no real zeros and a + b + c less than zero then
Answers
SOLUTION
TO CHOOSE THE CORRECT OPTION
If f(x) = ax² + bx + c has no real zeros and a + b + c < 0 then
a) c = 0
b) c > 0
c) c < 0
d) None of the above
EVALUATION
Here the given function is
f(x) = ax² + bx + c
Since it is a polynomial
So f(x) is continuous
Since f(x) = ax² + bx + c has no real zeros
So f(x) ≠ 0 for all x ∈ R
Either f(x) < 0 or f(x) > 0 for all x ∈ R
Now f(1) = a + b + c
Since a + b + c < 0
∴ f(1) < 0
By the continuity of f(x) we have
f(x) < 0 for all x ∈ R
Then f(0) < 0
⇒ 0 + 0 + c < 0
⇒ c < 0
FINAL ANSWER
Hence the correct option is c) c < 0
