If the roots to such a polynomial are 2 and 
, then we can write it as
courtesy of the fundamental theorem of algebra. Now expanding yields
which would be the correct answer, but clearly this option is not listed. Which is silly, because none of the offered solutions are *the* polynomial of lowest degree and leading coefficient 1.
So this makes me think you're expected to increase the multiplicity of one of the given roots, or you're expected to pull another root out of thin air. Judging by the choices, I think it's the latter, and that you're somehow supposed to know to use
as a root. In this case, that would make our polynomial
so that the answer is (probably) the third choice.

A function that gives the amount that the plant earns per man-hour t years after it opens is
Given that
A manufacturing plant earned $80 per man-hour of labor when it opened.
Each year, the plant earns an additional 5% per man-hour.
Need to write a function that gives the amount A(t) that the plant earns per man-hour t years after it opens.
Amount earned by plant when it is opened = $80 per man-hour
As it is given that each year, the plants earns an additional of 5% per man hour
So Amount earned by plant after one year = $80 + 5% of $80 = 80 ( 1 + 0.05) = (80 x 1.05)
Amount earned by plant after two years is given as:
Similarly Amount earned by plant after three years
Hence a function that gives the amount that the plant earns per man-hour t years after it opens is
