solve 0=-1+2x+3x^2...

solve `0=-1+2x+3x^2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Since `f'(x)=12x^(2)+6x+2`
Here `D=6^(2)-4.12.2=36-96=-60lt0`
`implies` Only one real root for `f(x)=0`
Also `f(0)=1,f(-1)=-2`
`implies` Root must lie in `(-1,0)`
Taking averate of 0 and (-1),f(-1/2)=1/4`
`implies` Root must lie in `(-1,-1/2)`
Similarly `f(-3/4)=-1/2`
`implies` Root must lie in `(-3/4,-1/2)`
