A third degree polynomial is called a cubic - regardless of how many terms it has, it is named after the highest power.x3+ x - 1 is still a cubic, despite the lack of an x2term. Likewise, x2- 4 is still a quadratic, and x4- 2x is called a quartic.
Given any set of 6 numbers it is easy to find a rule based on a polynomial of order 5 such that the polynomial generates those numbers. There are infinitely many polynomials of orders 6, 7, 8 etc and also non-polynomial answers.One possible answer, out of these infinite possibilities isUn = (4n5 - 37n4 + 663 + 2415n2 - 730n + 456)/24 for n = 1, 2, 3, ...
y = x2-4x+4 Since the highest degree term is 2, it must have 2 roots
Roots can be purchased online from many different stores. Try looking at eBay, Amazon Video, bestbuy, warnervideo, cduniverse, walmart, or blackclassicmovies.
both are roots both grow under ground both hold the plant firmly
It can have 1, 2 or 3 unique roots.
4, the same as the degree of the polynomial.
A third-degree equation has, at most, three roots. A fourth-degree polynomial has, at most, four roots. APEX 2021
5, Using complex numbers you will always get 5 roots.
According to the rational root theorem, which of the following are possible roots of the polynomial function below?F(x) = 8x3 - 3x2 + 5x+ 15
A third degree polynomial could have one or three real roots.

Sort of... but not entirely. Assuming the polynomial's coefficients are real, the polynomial either has as many real roots as its degree, or an even number less. Thus, a polynomial of degree 4 can have 4, 2, or 0 real roots; while a polynomial of degree 5 has either 5, 3, or 1 real roots. So, polynomial of odd degree (with real coefficients) will always have at least one real root. For a polynomial of even degree, this is not guaranteed. (In case you are interested about the reason for the rule stated above: this is related to the fact that any complex roots in such a polynomial occur in conjugate pairs; for example: if 5 + 2i is a root, then 5 - 2i is also a root.)
None, it involves the square root of a negative number so the roots are imaginary.
Upto 4. If the coefficients are all real, then it can have only 0, 2 or 4 real roots.
Descartes' rule of signs (see related link) can help you determine the maximum number of real roots. If the polynomial is odd powered, then there will be at least one real root. Any even powered polynomial can be factored into a bunch of quadratics [though they may not be rational or even pretty], and any odd-powered polynomial can be factored into a bunch of quadratics and one linear (this one would have the real root). So the quadratics may have pairs of real or complex roots (having an imaginary component).To clarify, when I say complex, I'm referring to the fact that there will be an imaginary component to the root, because actually the real numbers is a subset of the set of complex numbers.The order of the polynomial will tell you how many roots it will have. If you can graph the polynomial, then you can see if it crosses the x axis. If it is a 5th order polynomial, and crosses the x axis 3 times, then there are 3 real roots (the other two roots are complex).
