The fundamental theorem of algebra states: Select one: a. In the complex numbers, every polynomial with a degree of 1 or higher has zero roots. b. In the complex numbers, every polynomial with a degree of 1 or higher has at least 1 root. c. In the complex numbers, every polynomial with a degree of 1 or higher has only 1 root. d. In the complex numbers, every polynomial with a degree of 1 or higher has at least 2 roots.

A) False B) True C) False D) False Wordy multiple choice, so... I think it's clear that b is the only possibly true statement, no? Moreover, it is the statement of the fundamental theorem

So b Is the answer

Miracrown (miracrown):

Remember all real numbers are also complex numbers. So if you have a real root it counts as a complex root technically speaking

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So b Is the answer

Miracrown (miracrown):

the more common phrasing of the fundamental theorem is: Every non-constant, single variable, degree n polynomial with complex coefficients has exactly n roots counting multiplicity and yes man, b is the answer.
