Letf, g :-1, 2 Rbe continuous functions which are twice differentiable on the interval-1, 2. Let the values offandgat the points-1, 0and2be as given in the following table:

 x= -1x = 0x = 2
f(x)360
gx01-1


In each of the intervals-1, 0and0, 2the function(f-3g)"never vanishes. Then the correct statement(s) is(are)

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
B, C
Solution:

hx=fx-3gx
h-1=3-0=3
h0=6-3=3
h2=0+3=3
h(x)has at least one root is-1,0
Andhxhas at least one in(0,2)
Hencehxatleast one root in(-1,2)but
Also,f-3g0 in -1, 0 and (0, 2)
hx=0 only at x=0, so
fx-3gxhas exactly one solution in (-1, 0) and (0, 2)
