Let f : R → R be twice differentiable such that f ( 0 ) = 2 , f ′ ( 0 ) = − 2 , f ( 1 ) = 1 .
Find for at-least how many c ∈ ( 0 , 1 ) f ( c ) ⋅ f ′ ( c ) + f ′ ′ ( c ) = 0 is satisfied.

@Priyanshu Mishra Isn't JEE Advanced to be held in May, 2019??? So, how come these titles??
@Ram Mohith , the problem wants a solid proof using analysis. It’s not given that f is a polynomial. You have showed it for polynomial. Can you show it for all remaining infinitely many possible functions?

from where do you get these types of problems?? @Priyanshu Mishra
can u please provide a solid prove?
@Aaron Jerry Ninan , some are taken from books and some made by myself.

Any noteworthy books???? It would be helpful......:)
@Aaghaz Mahajan , for what ? JEE or Olympiad? For JEE you don't need any book apart from your coaching material.

Ohhh!! I see......Well, I go to FIITJEE, so their packages will suffice for JEE?? And well, could you suggest some Physics Olympiad books???

@Aaghaz Mahajan , Yes they do suffice very much for JEE. On top of that they have GMP, RTPF, REVIEW and The very tough AITS. I don't think you need to do anything else if you have done this. For physics Olympiad you don't need specific books. Just have command over Irodov and Krotov as well as GMP. ALSO try INPHO problems, that's it as the syllabus is same as JEE.

@Priyanshu Mishra – Ok thank you!!!! :)
By the way, are you preparing for JEE??? If so, Best of Luck!!!

I assumed, f ( x ) to be f ( x ) = a x 2 + b x + d and substituted in the given three conditions to get the values of a , b , d
f ( 0 ) = f ′ ( 0 ) = f ( 1 ) = f ( c ) ⋅ f ′ ( c ) + f ′ ′ ( c ) ( c 2 − 2 c + 2 ) ( 2 c − 2 ) + 2 c c 3 − 3 c 2 + 5 c − 2 d = 2 b = − 2 a − 2 + 2 = 1 ⟹ a = 1 = 0 = 0 = 0
The only real solution to the above equation in c is 0 . 5 4 6 7 and the other two are imaginary roots. As c = 0 . 5 4 ∈ ( 1 , 0 ) it is the only possible solution.
My only doubt here is that, can we assume f ( x ) = a x 2 + b x + d ?
