Question

The line $$y + 14 = 0$$   cuts the curve whose equation is $$x\left( {{x^2} + x + 1} \right) + y = 0$$     at

A. three real points
B. one real point  
C. at least one real point
D. no real point
Answer :   one real point
Solution :
Solving the equations, $${x^3} + {x^2} + x - 14 = 0$$
$$\eqalign{ & \Rightarrow \,\,\left( {x - 2} \right)\left( {{x^2} + 3x + 7} \right) = 0 \cr & \therefore \,\,x = 2,\frac{{ - 3 \pm \sqrt {9 - 28} }}{2}. \cr} $$
