Among the coefficient signs (++-) there is one sign change, so Descarte's rule of signs tells you there is one positive real root. Changing x to -x does not affect the signs, so there is also one negative real root. Then there are two complex roots to bring the total number to 4, the degree of the polynomial.
The factorization is
f(x) = (x^2 +25)(x^2 -4)
Each of these can be factored using the form for factoring the difference of squares.
f(x) = (x -5i)(x +5i)(x -2)(x +2)
There are 2 real roots: ±2.
There are 2 imaginary roots: ±5i.

Answer:
- no square roots: -1000, -8
- one square root: 0
- two square roots: 8, 64, 1000
- no cube roots: <none>
- one cube root: -1000, -8, 0, 8, 64, 1000
- two cube roots: <none>
Step-by-step explanation:
The attached graph shows the square root relation (red) and the cube root function (blue). The function values are shown for x=0 and x=±8.
You can see that there are 2 square roots for positive numbers, one square root for 0, and 0 square roots for negative numbers. There is exactly 1 cube root for any number.
- no square roots: -1000, -8
- one square root: 0
- two square roots: 8, 64, 1000
- no cube roots: <none>
- one cube root: -1000, -8, 0, 8, 64, 1000
- two cube roots: <none>

<em>Additional comment</em>
We call the square root curve a "relation" because it is <em>not a function</em>. A relation that is a function will have only one y-value for each x-value. For positive x-values, there are two square roots.
x + 1/2 = 3/4
set denominators equal:
x + 2/4 = 3/4
-2/4 for both sides:
x = 1/4
there you go! hope this helps!
