Consider the function f: [ 12,1 ] R defined by f(x)=4 2x3-3 2x-1. Consider the statements (I) The curve y=f(x) intersects the x-axis exactly at one point. (II) The curve y=f(x) intersects the x-axis at x= 12. Then

1. Both (I) and (II) are correct.
2. Only (I) is correct.
3. Both (I) and (II) are incorrect.
4. Only (II) is correct.

Let f(x)=2x-x2,x R. If m and n are respectively the number of points at which the curves y=f(x) and y=f'(x) intersect the x-axis, then the value of m+n is .

The function f(x)= xx2-6x-16, x R-\-2,8\

2. increases in (- ,-2) (-2,8) (8, )
3. decreases in (-2,8) and increases in (- ,-2) (8, )
4. decreases in (- ,-2) and increases in (8, )
