solve the equation.

$(1) Solve the equation $x^3-x^2+9\lambda x-\lambda=0$. if It is known to have only\\\\ positive roots. and also find value of $\lambda$\\\\ (2) Determine The no. of local extreme of \\\\$f(x)=(x-1).(x-2)^2.(x-3)^3.(x-4)^4.................(x-n)^n$\\\\ Where $x\in R$ and $n$(integer) $>1.$

1)

let the roots be a,b,c

a+b+c=1

ab+bc+ca=-9λ
abc=λ

since a,b,c are all positive so -9λ has to be positive

so λ<0

but abc=λ means λhas to be ≥0

hence λ=0

which gives x=0

2) If n = 2m
then ans = 1 + 3 + 5 + .. + 2m-1
= m^2 = n^2/4

If n = 2m+1
then ans = 1 + 3 + 5 + ... + 2m+1
= (m+1)^2 = (n+1)^2/4
