Consider `f(x)=ax^(4)+cx^(2)+dx+e` has no point o inflection Then which of the following is/are possible?

A

`agt0,clt0`

B

`alt0,cgt0`

C

`a,clt0`

D

`a,cgt0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
3,4

f(x) =`ax^(4)+cx^(2)+dx+e`
`rarr f(x)=12ax^(2)+2c=0`
`rarr x^(2)=(c )/(6a)`
Since the funtion has no point of inflection above equation has no real roots
`rarr c//agt0`
