The rational root theorem is used to determine the possible roots of a function.
The true statement is: (d) Any rational root of f(x) is a factor of 3 divided by a factor of 8.
The function is given as:
[tex]\mathbf{f(x) = 8x^3 - 4x^2 + 6x + 3}[/tex]
The possible roots of a function
[tex]\mathbf{f(x) = qx^n + ax^{n-1} +.....+ p}[/tex]
are
[tex]\mathbf{Roots = \pm\frac{Factors\ of\ p}{Factors\ of\ q}}[/tex]
By comparison: p = 3 and q = 8
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{Roots = \pm\frac{Factors\ of\ 3}{Factors\ of\ 8}}[/tex]
Hence, the true option is (d) Any rational root of f(x) is a factor of 3 divided by a factor of 8.
