The functionf(x)=x3+ax2+bx+c,a2≤3b has
one maximum value
one minimum value
no extreme value
one maximum and one minimum value
Explanation for correct option
f(x)=x3+ax2+bx+c
f'(x)=3x2+2ax+b
Now, f'(x)=0
⇒3x2+2ax+b=0
⇒x=-2a±4a2-12b6
Since, a2≤3b
So, x has imaginary values.
Hence, option C is correct.
The function f(x)=x3+ax2+bx+c,a2≤3b has
