a. 3, b. 4, c. 5, d. 6, e. 7, f. 8, g. none of these Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
Both complex and irrational roots come in pairs. You have one rational number root, one irrational number root, and one complex number root. The single rational number root is ok, but you need another irrational root and another complex number root for a total of 5 roots.
