If (x – 5) is a factor of f(x), which of the following must be true?
A root of f(x) is x = –5.
A root of f(x) is x = 5.
Both x = –5 and x = 5 are roots of f(x).
Neither x = –5 nor x = 5 is a root of f(x).

Respuesta :

A root of f(x) is x = 5, since you have to equate the factor (x-5) to 0, which gives you 5 for x. 

The statement true about the function is A root of f(x) is x = 5.

The correct option is B.

Roots of the function

The roots of the function can be determined by equating the factor of the equation with zero.

If (x – 5) is a factor of f(x), which of the following must be true?

Here, f(x) is a has a root which is (x-5).

The root (x-5) equates with zero.

[tex]\rm x-5=0\\\\x=0+5\\\\x=5[/tex]

Hence, the statement true about the function is A root of f(x) is x = 5.
