The correct option is D one real and two imaginary
(x−α)3=x3−α3−3x2α+3xα2
f(x)=(x−a)3+(x−b)3+(x−c)3=3x3−3x2(a+b+c)+3x(a2+b2+c2)−a3−b3−c3=0
sum of roots =a+b+c
product of roots =a3+b3+c33
product of roots taken two at a time=a2+b2+c2
f′(x)=9x2−6x(a+b+c)+3(a2+b2+c2)
Δ=b2−4ac
=(a+b+c)2−3(a2+b2+c2)
=−(ab+bc+ca)<0
∴ f' is not zero anywhere.
so f is increasing function, so it has one real and two imaginary roots.
