Question:

Let the function \( f : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} \) be defined by \[ f(x) = \frac{\sin x}{e^{\pi x}} \cdot \frac{x^{2023} + 2024x + 2025}{(x^2 - x + 3)} + \frac{2}{e^{\pi x}} \cdot \frac{x^{2023} + 2024x + 2025}{(x^2 - x + 3)}. \] Then the number of solutions of \( f(x) = 0 \) in \( \mathbb{R} \) is \_\_\_\_\_.

Show Hint

Solution and Explanation

Simplifying \( f(x) \): \[ f(x) = \frac{x^{2023} + 2024x + 2025}{(x^2 - x + 3)e^{\pi x}} \cdot (\sin x + 2). \] For \( f(x) = 0 \), we solve: \[ x^{2023} + 2024x + 2025 = 0 \quad \text{(since \( \sin x + 2 \neq 0 \) and \( x^2 - x + 3>0 \))}. \] Let: \[ g(x) = x^{2023} + 2024x + 2025. \] Derivative: \[ g'(x) = 2023x^{2022} + 2024>0 \quad \text{(strictly increasing)}. \] Thus, \( g(x) \) cuts the \( x \)-axis only once, so \( f(x) = 0 \) has exactly one solution.
