Step-by-step explanation:
Complex roots or imaginary roots must come in conjugate pairs. If -4i is a root, that means 4i is also a root.
A possible polynomial is:
y = (x + 4i) (x − 4i)
y = x² − 16i²
y = x² + 16

Answer:
y = 5cos(πx/4) +11
Step-by-step explanation:
The radius is 5 ft, so that will be the multiplier of the trig function.
The car starts at the top of the wheel, so the appropriate trig function is cosine, which is 1 (its maximum value) when its argument is zero.
The period is 8 seconds, so the argument of the cosine function will be 2π(x/8) = πx/4. This changes by 2π when x changes by 8.
The centerline of the wheel is the sum of the minimum and the radius, so is 6+5 = 11 ft. This is the offset of the scaled cosine function.
Putting that all together, you get
... y = 5cos(π/4x) + 11
_____
The answer selections don't seem to consistently identify the argument of the trig function properly. We assume that π/4(x) means (πx/4), where this product is the argument of the trig function.
