M61-63: Paragraph for Question Nos. 61 to 63
If a continuous function $f$ defined on the real line $\mathbf { R }$, assumes positive and negative values in $\mathbf { R }$ then the equation $f ( x ) = 0$ has a root in $\mathbf { R }$. For example, if it is known that a continuous function $f$ on $\mathbf { R }$ is positive at some point and its minimum value is negative then the equation $f ( x ) = 0$ has a root in $\mathbf { R }$. Consider $f ( x ) = k e ^ { x } - x$ for all real $x$ where $k$ is a real constant. Answer ◯

\section*{M61-63: Paragraph for Question Nos. 61 to 63}
If a continuous function $f$ defined on the real line $\mathbf { R }$, assumes positive and negative values in $\mathbf { R }$ then the equation $f ( x ) = 0$ has a root in $\mathbf { R }$. For example, if it is known that a continuous function $f$ on $\mathbf { R }$ is positive at some point and its minimum value is negative then the equation $f ( x ) = 0$ has a root in $\mathbf { R }$.\\
Consider $f ( x ) = k e ^ { x } - x$ for all real $x$ where $k$ is a real constant.\\
