The correct answer for the exercise shown above is th second option (Option B), which is:

 B. False

 The explanation is shown below:

 1. By a theorem known as "The rational root theorem", you have that the rational roots of a polynomial function f(x) can be written in the form p/q where "p" is the factor of the constant term of the polynomial and "q" is the factor of the leading coefficient of the polynomial.

 2. Therefore, as you can see, the answer is the option mentioned above.

The statement about the rational roots is false

How to determine the true statement?

It is true that the rational roots of a polynomial function f(x) can be written in the form p/q

However,

  • p represents the factor of the constant term
  • q is a factor of the leading coefficient

This means that the given statement is false
