Given `P(x) = x^(4) + ax^(3) + bx^(2) + cx + d` such that x = 0 is the only real root P'(x) = 0.
If `P(-1) lt P(1)`, then in the interval [-1, 1]

A

P(-1) is the minimum and P(1) is the maximum of P.

B

P(-1) is not minimum but P(1) is the maximum of P.

C

P(-1) is the minimum and P(1) is not the maximum of P.

D

neither P(-1) is the minimum nor P(1) is the maximum of P.
