Question
If $y=x^3+x^2+x+1$, then $y$
✓
Answer
(c) : Let $f(x)=y=x^3+x^2+x+1$ Then, $f^{\prime}(x)=3 x^2+2 x+1$. For a maximum or minimum, we have $ f^{\prime}(x)=0 \Rightarrow 3 x^2+2 x+1=0 $ But, this equation gives imaginary values of $x$. So, $f^{\prime}(x) \neq 0$ for any real value of $x$. Hence, $f(x)$ does not have a maximum or minimum.
