Use synthetic division...
.
x^5 – 3x^4 – 15x^3 + 45x^2 – 16x + 48 = 0
Testing 3 as a solution...
3 | 1 -3 -15 45 -16 48
3 0 -45 0 -48
-------------------------------
1 0 -15 0 -16 0
.
x^4 + 0x^3 - 15x^2 + 0x -16
Testing 4 as a solution...
.
4 | 1 0 -15 0 -16
4 16 4 16
-------------------------------
1 4 1 4 0
.
x^3 + 4x + x + 4
.
Testing -4 as a solution...
-4 | 1 4 1 4
-4 0 -4
------------------
1 0 1 0
.
x^2 + 1
set to zero:
x^2 + 1 = 0
x^2 = -1
x = +-i
.
answer: c
