Suggested Solution:
(i) y = x3 + ax2 +bx
dy = 3x2 + 2ax + b
dx
for stationary points, dy =O
dr
=> 3x2 + 2ax + b = 0
as the curve has no stationary value. discriminant < 0
=> b2 -4ac< 0
=> (2a)2 -4(3)(b) < 0
=> 4a2 - l2b < 0 => 4a2<12b => a2 < 3b (Shown).
y = x3 - 6x2 + 9x
y is a decreasing function if dy < 0
