Thepossible numbers of positive and negative real zeros of

Answer to Problem 58CR
One or three positive zeros and no negative zero.
Explanation of Solution
Concept Used:
Descartes’s Rule of Signs:
Let
1. The number of positive real zeros of f is either equal to the number of variations in sign of
2. The number of negative real zeros of f is either equal to the number of variations in sign of
Consider the polynomial
It has 3 variations in signs, which implies that the polynomial has either 3 positive zeros or 1 positive zero.
Now consider,
It has 0 variations in signs, which implies that the polynomial has no negative zero.
