Two roots of a third degree polynomial function f(x) are –4 and 4. Which statement describes the number and nature of all roots for this function? f(x) has three imaginary roots.
f(x) has three real roots.
f(x) has two real roots and two imaginary roots.
f(x) has three real roots and one imaginary root.

Step-by-step explanation:

A third degree polynomial has a total of three roots, real and imaginary combined.

If it already has 2 real roots, -4 and +4, then it has to have three real roots because imaginary roots come in conjugate pairs, i.e. they come in even numbers.

Three real roots

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.
