Question

How many real roots does the continuous function f of a variable x shown below have in the interval 0.5 < x < 4.5?

A.

Two Positive 

B.

One positive and two negative 

C.

Two positive and one negative 

D.

None 

Correct option is D

Solution:

A real root is a value of x where the graph crosses the x-axis, meaning f(x) = 0 at that point.

From the graph:

The curve is always above the x-axis between x = 0.5 and x = 4.5.

It dips down in some places but never touches or crosses the x-axis.

Therefore, there is no value of x in that interval where f(x) = 0.

Final Answer: D) None

There are no real roots of the function in the interval 0.5 < x < 4.5.
