Revolt · Accepted Answer

2 x-intercepts

Question 4

According to the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, which polynomial function has exactly 11 roots?

Revolt · Accepted Answer

f (x) = (x + 2) cubed (x squared minus 7 x + 3) Superscript 4

Question 5

According to the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, how many roots exist for the polynomial function?(9x + 7)(4x + 1)(3x + 4) = 0

Revolt · Accepted Answer

3 roots

Question 6

According to the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, how many roots exist for the polynomial function?f(x) = 8x7 – x5 + x3 + 6

Revolt · Accepted Answer

7 roots

Question 7

Two roots of a third degree polynomial function f(x) are –4 and 4. Which statement describes the number and nature of all roots for this function?

Revolt · Accepted Answer

f(x) has three real roots.

Question 8

Which of the following statements must be true about the polynomial function f(x)?

Revolt · Accepted Answer

If 1 + 13i is a root of f(x), then 1 – 13i is also a root of f(x).

Question 9

Trevor is studying a polynomial function f(x). Three given roots of f(x) are –7, 2i, and 7. Trevor concludes that f(x) must be a polynomial with degree 3. Which statement is true?

Revolt · Accepted Answer

Trevor is not correct because –2i must also be a root.

Question 10
