Alg 2 help Use the Rational Root Theorem to list all possible rational roots of 3x3 + x2 – 15x – 5 = 0. Then find any actual rational roots. Find the roots of 10x4 + x3 + 7x2 + x – 3 = 0 A polynomial equation with rational coefficients has the roots Sq rt of 7 and –5i. Find two additional roots Find a third-degree polynomial equation with integer coefficients that has the roots 8 and 3i.

The rational root theorem states that any rational root of a polynomial will be of the form p/q, where p is a factor of the constant term and q is a factor of the leading coefficient. The leading coefficient is 10, so the factors are -10, -5, -2, -1, 1, 2, 5, and 10. The constant term is -3, so the factors are -3, -1, 1, and 3. The possible rational roots are -3/10, -1/10, -3/5, -1/5, -3/2, -1/2, -3/1, -1/1, 1/1, 3/1, 1/2, 3/2, 1/5, 3/5, 1/10, and 3/10.

can you be more clear i still dont know the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I listed a big list of fractions at the end, those are all the possible roots from the rational root theorem. (I know, it's a big list)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh oops I found the roots of the wrong equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The leading coefficient is 3 and the constant term is -5, so the roots are -5/3, -5/1, -1/1, 1/1, 5/1, and 5/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which number is this, one right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@sauravshakya do you understand this??

OpenStudy (precal):

you should post your questions one at a time because it will be confusing for you to understand our postings

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what unit and lesson?

lol its the same questions as the questions listed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hhmmm idk, i cant find em

OpenStudy (anonymous):
