1 votes 1 votes Let F(x) = x3 + x + c F'(x)= 3x2 + 1 Since F' is always positive so F(x) is increasing everywhere.And since F(x) goes from minus infinity to plus infinity so it must be cutting x-axis at some point and that cutting point is the only root. vijaycs answered May 14, 2016 vijaycs comment Share Follow See all 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.
