Let n be an odd integer then the number of real roots of polynomial equation Pn(x)= 1+2x+3x2+4x3............(n+1)xn is (a) 0 (b) n (c) 1 (d) none

yes the answer is 1 u see there beimg a n degree poly has n roots atleast one root is real as complex roots occur in conjugate pairs

Since it is an objective type question, put n=3.
y = 4x3+3x2+2x+1
dy/dx = 12x2+6x+2 > 0 for any x since its discriminant is less than 0.
Hence y is an increasing function and hence it will cut the x-axis only once.
Hence no. of real roots is 1.
