Detailed Solution

f(x)  is concave upward function, so  f''(x)>0
f'(x)  is strictly increasing function
α  and  β  be consecutive roots of  f(x)(α<β)
 f(α)=f(β)=0
put   x=α  and  β  in the given equation
f'(α)g(α)g'(α)f(α)=α4+2α2+10(1)
 f'(β)g(β)g'(β)f(β)=β4+2β2+10(2)
f'(α)<0  and  f'(β)>0 ( f(x)  is concave upward function)
So  g(α)<0  and  g(β)>0  from equation (1) and (2)
Differentiating the given equation, we get
 f''(x)g(x)+f'(x)g'(x)g'(x)f'(x)g''(x)f(x)=4x3+4x
 f''(x)g(x)g''(x)f(x)=4x3+4x
Substitute  x=α  and  β
 f''(α)g(α)g''(α)f(α)=4α3+4α(3) f''(α)g(α)=α(4α2+4) f''(β)g(β)g''(β)f(β)=4β3+4β(4) f''(β)g(β)=β(4β2+4)
From equation (3) and (4),  α<0  and  β>0
 f'(x)g(x)g'(x)f(x)=x4+2x2+10
let be the root between  α  and  β  for g (x)
 f'(γ)g(γ)g'(γ)f(γ)=γ4+2γ2+10 g'(γ)f(γ)=γ4+2γ2+10 f''(x)>0 f(γ)<0g'(γ)>0
g (x) has exactly one root between  α  and  β
