Question

The polynomial $$\left( {a{x^2} + bx + c} \right)\left( {a{x^2} - dx - c} \right),ac \ne 0,$$        has

A. four real zeros
B. at least two real zeros  
C. at most two real zeros
D. no real zeros
Answer :   at least two real zeros
Solution :
$$\eqalign{ & D = {b^2} - 4ac,D' = {d^2} + 4ac \cr & \Rightarrow \,\,D + D' = {b^2} + {d^2} > 0 \cr} $$
∴ at least one of $$D, D'$$  is positive.
