If a continuous function $f$ defined on the real line $R$ assumes positive and negative values in $R$,then the equation $f(x)=0$ has a root in $R$. For example,if it is known that a continuous function $f$ on $R$ is positive at some point and its minimum value is negative,then the equation $f(x)=0$ has a root in $R$.
Consider $f(x)=k e^x-x$ for all real $x$,where $k$ is a real constant.
