Find $\ value of  k for which all the roots of the equation\\
$\ x^4+4x^3-8x^2+k=0 $\ are real.

Hint: where are the local minima of f(x)=x^4+4x^3-8x^2+k?

Local $\ Min is at $\ x = -4,$\ x = 1.\\
local $\ Max$\  is at $\ x=0.

And what are the values of f in that case? Can you see why this answers the question?

$\ yes i have found the solution....\\
f(0) = k \\
f(1) = k-3\\

$ \ and$\   by using drawing The rough graph of f(x).we get\\

k\epsilon\ [0,3].
