Question
The real number k for which the equation 2x3 + 3x + k = 0 has two distinct real roots in [0, 1]
Options
A.lies between 1 and 2.
B.lies between 2 and 3.
C. lies between -1 and 0
D.does not exist
Solution
f(x) = 2x3 + 3x + k
f′(x) = 6x2 + 3 > 0
⇒ f is increasing function
⇒ f (x) = 0 has exactly one real root. (as it is an odd degree polynomial)
