  1. A one maximum value
  2. B no extreme value
  3. C one maximum and one minimum value
  4. D one maximum and one minimum value
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) one maximum and one minimum value

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \(f(x)=x^3+a x^2+b x+c, a^2 \leq 3 b\). On differentiating w.r.t. \(x\), we get \(\begin{aligned} & f^{\prime}(x)=3 x^2+2 a x+b \\ & \text { Put } \quad f^{\prime}(x)=0 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad 3 x^2+2 a x+b=0 \\ & \end{aligned}\)…
