Answer: Option 'B' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

One root of a third degree polynomial function is -5+2i

As we know that every complex root comes with its conjugate root meaning they always come in pairs

So, another complex root will be -5-2i

So, remaining one root which must be real root because if it was complex it would come with its pair i.e. conjugate , then total it makes 4 roots which can't possible for three degree polynomial.

So, there must be 2 complex roots and one real root.

Hence, Option 'B' is correct.

Given the root of -5+2i, we are asked to describe the best statement that describes the polynomial. The root  -5+2i cannot exist without its conjugate root, -5-2i. Complex roots are always accompanied by at least 1 real root. Since there are only 3 roots, there should be one root only, hence the answer is B.<span>

A farmer has 7 3/4 rows of radishes in one field, 4 3/4 rows of radishes in another field, and 6 1/4 rows of radishes in a third
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

  A. 18 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

It is convenient to rearrange the sum to make it easier to compute:

  7 3/4 + 4 3/4 + 6 1/4 = (7 3/4) +(4 +6) +(3/4 +1/4)

  = 7 3/4 + 10 + 1

  = 18 3/4

The farmer has 18 3/4 rows of radishes altogether.
