Question 621222: 16. Which of the following is a reason for why the trace function on a graphing calculator can sometimes be better than the Bisection Theorem for finding roots?
A. The Intermediate Bisection Theorem applies only to continuous functions, and not all polynomials are continuous.
B. The Bisection Theorem can't find roots to more than 3 decimal places.
C. Some roots aren't surrounded by one positive and one negative value of the polynomial.
