According to the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, which polynomial function has exactly 8 roots? PLS HELP IM TIMED

Option (1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Fundamental theorem of Algebra states degree of the polynomial defines the number of roots of the polynomial.

8 roots means degree of the polynomial = 8

Option (1)

f(x) = (3x² - 4x - 5)(2x⁶- 5)

When we multiply (3x²) and (2x⁶),

(3x²)(2x⁶) = 6x⁸

Therefore, degree of the polynomial = 8

And number of roots = 8

Option (2)

f(x) = (3x⁴ + 2x)⁴

By solving the expression,

Leading term of the polynomial = (3x⁴)⁴

                                                     = 81x¹⁶

Therefore, degree of the polynomial = 16

And number of roots = 16

Option (3)

f(x) = (4x² - 7)³

Leading term of the polynomial = (4x²)³

                                                    = 64x⁶

Degree of the polynomial = 6

Number of roots = 6

Option (4)

f(x) = (6x⁸ - 4x⁵ - 1)(3x² - 4)

By simplifying the expression,

Leading term of the polynomial = (6x⁸)(3x²)

                                                     = 18x¹⁰

Degree of the polynomial = 10

Therefore, number of roots = 10
