(af(mu) lt 0) is the necessary and suff...

`(af(mu) lt 0)` is the necessary and sufficient condition for a particular real number `mu` to lie between the roots of a quadratic equations `f(x) =0,` where `f(x) = ax^(2) + bx + c`. Again if `f(mu_(1)) f(mu_(2)) lt 0`, then exactly one of the roots will lie between `mu_(1)` and `mu_(2)`.
If `a(a+b+c) lt 0 lt (a+b+c)c`, then

A

one roots is less than 0, the is posititve, the other is negative.

B

exactly one of the roots lies in (0,1)

C

both the roots lie in (0,1)

D

at least one of the roots lies in (0,1)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
1

`af(1) lt 0 and f(0) f(1) gt 0`
`rArr af(1) lt 0 and af(0) lt 0`
Hence, both the numbers 0 and 1 lie between the roots.
