If a polynomial function f(x)has root -2 + square root 8 and 9 what must be a factor of f(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that f(x) is a polynomial function.

This implies that f(x) has x terms of positive integral degrees and also rational coefficients only.

Since an irrational root is given a root of f(x), we find that its conjugate also should be a root of f(x)

i.e. If is a root, then is also a root.

(Because this only when multiplied will make coefficients rational)

So the factors of f(x) should be atleast

There can be other factors also but this is compulsory

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
