The points plotted below are on the graph of a polynomial. Some of the roots to this polynomial are integers. Which of the following x-values are roots of the polynomial

First step is to get rid of the square root. remember that a square root is the same as raising to the (1/2) power. see below: multiply exponents per exponent rules to get: remember you subtract exponents from the denominator and add exponents in the numerator so: simplify further: so a is the correct choice. if you don't understand this google exponent rules and it will you understand. look at the image results.

The answer is 60.9774
