Which of the following is a polynomial with roots 5, 4i, and - 4i?

In order to figure this out, we need to make roots into binomials:

x = 5, 4i, and - 4i

This can be written as:

f (x) = (x - 5) (x + 4i) (x - 4i)

Let's take care of the imaginary numbers first:

(x + 4i) (x - 4i)

x^2 - 4ix + 4ix + 16

x^2 + 16

Now we can re-insert this into our problem and solve accordingly:

f (x) = (x - 5) (x^2 + 16)

f (x) = x^3 + 16x - 5x^2 - 80

Now we can rearrange the terms in descending order to obtain our polynomial:

f (x) = x^3 - 5x^2 + 16x - 80

Fx = x^3 - 5x^2 + 16x - 80
