Please help :( really need answer

Options (C) and (F)

Step-by-step explanation:

Polynomial function is,

f(x) = x³ - x² - 5x - 3

Possible rational roots of the given function will be =

By putting x = -1

f(-1) = (-1)³ - (-1)² -5(-1) - 3

     = -1 - 1 + 5 - 3

     = 0

Therefore, x = -1 will a root of the given function.

Now we apply synthetic division to get the other roots,

-1 |  1       -1       -5      -3

      ↓      -1         2      3

     1       -2       -3      0

Therefore, factored form of the polynomial will be (x + 1)(x² - 2x - 3).

Now we will find the roots of (x² -2x - 3).

x² - 2x - 3 = x² - 3x + x - 3

                = x(x - 3) + 1(x - 3)

                = (x + 1)(x - 3)

For roots of the function, f(x) = 0

(x + 1)(x - 3) = 0

x = -1, 3

Therefore, roots of the function are x = -1, 3

Options (C) and (F) are the answers.

94

step-by-step explanation:

average the numbers and use a variable to figure out the minimum to get a 90.

(79+94+91+92+x)/5=90

x = 94
