Detailed Solution
I et D1 and D2 be discriminants of ax2+bx+c−0 and -ax2+bx+c=0 respectively Then, D1=b2−4ac,D2=b2+4ac Now, ac≠0⇒ either ac>0 or ac<0 If ac>0 , then D2>0 . Therefore, roots of −ax2+bx+c=0 are real If ac<0 , then D1>0 . Therefore, roots of ax2+bx+c=0 are real Thus, f(x)g(x) has at least two real roots.
