Observe the table:
\ is negative and
is positive, therefore the value of
changes sign for
.
And there is no sign change between and
.
As the tends to
from the left
decreases, then begins increasing at
.
By the location principle has a zero between
and
.
There may be real zeros between consecutive integers and
.
Graph:
\Graph the function :
Observe the graph:
\The curve crosses the -axis between
and
.
Therefore, the zero of on
occur between
and
.
The zero of on
occur between
