Which of the following is the complete list of roots for the polynomial function f(x) =
REY [17]

Answer: -5, 3, 4 + 1,4-i (option 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The roots of an equation are the x values for f(x) = 0. Therefore to find the roots of the equation, you first set the function to 0 and then solve for the values of x.

since f(x) = -(x² + 2x - 15) (x² + 8x + 17)

            0 = -(x² + 2x - 15) (x² + 8x + 17)

∴ either -x² - 2x + 15 = 0      OR     x² + 8x +17 = 0

when    -x² - 2x + 15 = 0  

             -x² - 5x + 3x + 15 = 0

            (x  - 3 ) (-x - 5) = 0

⇒ x = 3 or x = -5

when x² + 8x +17 = 0

\frac{-8 + \sqrt{(64 - 68)}}{2} = 0 OR \frac{-8 - \sqrt{(64 - 68)}}{2} = 0        (using the quadratic equation)

⇒ x = 4 + i  or x = 4 - i

∴ the complete list of roots is -5, 3, 4 + 1,4-i (option 2)
