Solution

The correct option is B 1
Given : f(x)=x37x2+25x+8
f(x)=3x214x+25=03c214c+25=0b<0c=imaginary
Hence there is no tangent to curve
Thus, the curve will intersect at x-axis only once as imaginary roots come in pair.
Since there are only 3 roots of the given equation
Two of them are imaginary and one is real.
f(x)=0x37x2=25x8x2(x7)=(258)y1=x2(x7)y2=(25+8)
The two curves intersects only ones between (1,0)
