The fundamental theorem of algebra states that a polynomial with degree n has at most n solutions. The "at most" depends on the fact that the solutions might not all be real number.
In fact, if you use complex number, then a polynomial with degree n has exactly n roots.
So, in particular, a third-degree polynomial can have at most 3 roots.
In fact, in general, if the polynomial
has solutions
, then you can factor it as

So, a third-degree polynomial can't have 4 (or more) solutions, because otherwise you could write it as

But this is a fourth-degree polynomial.
X^2 + 8x + 7= 0
(X+7)(X+1)
X=-1,-7

Step-by-step explanation:
A) That is the number of bacteria that originally started in the culture
B) That is the rate at which the bacteria will reproduce
C) 1000 represents the number of bacteria at the beginning of the second culture.
The first study started with more bacteria, and will grow faster because of this
