Q31 / 90 · JEE Main 2024 (30 Jan Shift 2) · Mathematics

The number of real solutions of the equation \(x\left(x^2+3|x|+5|x-1|+6|x-2|\right)=0\) is ______.

Correct answer: 1

Solution

Given,

xx2+3|x|+5|x-1|+6|x-2|=0

⇒x=0 or x2+3|x|+5|x-1|+6|x-2|=0

We know that sum of all positive terms can never be zero,

So, x2+3|x|+5|x-1|+6|x-2| can never be zero for any value of x,

So there is no value of x which satisfies the above equation
Hence, only solution is x=0, i.e. number of solution is 1 .

Hence, the correct answer is 1.
