C. Hummingbirds are hovering over the geraniums while caterpillars munched leaves.

This is because the tense of the hummingbirds is in the "ing" form, while the tense of the caterpillars is in past tense, or the "ed" form. Because these tenses do not agree, it is an inappropriate shift in verb tense.

Answer:

$f(x)=(x-3)(x^2+4x+8)$

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial function is given by the form:

$f(x)=a(x-p)(x-q)...$

Where a is the leading coefficient, and p and q are the roots (more can be added if necessary).

Our zeros are 3 and (-2 + 2i).

And our leading coefficient a = 1.

Furthermore, by the Complex Root Theorem, if (-2 + 2i) is a zero, then (-2 - 2i) must also be a zero.

So, by substitution, we acquire:

$f(x)=1(x-(3))(x-(-2+2i))(x-(-2-2i))$

Simplify:

$f(x)=(x-3)(x+2-2i)(x+2+2i)$

Expand the second and third factors:

$\begin{aligned} &=(x+2-2i)x+(x+2-2i)(2)+(x+2-2i)(2i)\\&= (x^2+2x-2ix)+(2x+4-4i)+(2ix+4i-4i^2)\\&=(x^2)+(2x+2x)+(-2ix+2ix)+(-4i+4i)+(4-4i^2)\\&=x^2+4x+(4+4)\\&=x^2+4x+8 \end{aligned}$
