1.

The number of real roots of `x^(8) - x^(5) + x^(2) - x + 1 = 0` is

Answer» Correct Answer - `0`
`(1)` when `x lt 0 rArr` expression `gt 0`
`(2)` when `x = 0 rArr` expression `= 1 gt 0`
`(3)` when `0 lt x lt x^(8) + x^(2) (1 - x^(3)) + (1 - x) gt 0`
`(4) x = 1, 1-1 + 1 - 1 + 1 gt 0`
`(5) x gt 1, x^(5)(x^(3) - 1) + x( x - 1) + 1 gt 0`
so `x^(8) - x^(5) + x^(2) - x + 1 gt 0, cancelAAx in R` so on real roots
