Vedclass · Answer

(C) Let $f(x) = x^3 + x - 1$. Since $f(0) = -1  0$,by the Intermediate Value Theorem,there exists at least one real root $c$ in the interval $(0, 1)$. Alternatively,consider the derivative $f'(x) = 3x^2 + 1$. Since $3x^2 + 1 > 0$ for all $x \in \mathbb{R}$,$f(x)$ is a strictly increasing function. $A$ strictly increasing cubic function crosses the $X$-axis exactly once. Therefore,the equation has exactly one real root.
