Answer: 2 and -4.
- A 2 and -4
- B 2 and 4
- C -2 and 4
- D -2 and -4
Correct answer: A. 2 and -4
Explanation: Factors: (x+4)(x-2) = 0, so x = -4 or x = 2.
A complex number z = a+ib is plotted as a point (or vector from the origin) on the Argand plane, with the real part along the horizontal axis and the imaginary part along the vertical; its modulus |z| is the vector's length, and its argument θ is the angle from the positive real axis.
Concept context
Complex numbers in a+ib form, modulus, argument, polar form, cube roots of unity, and quadratic equations with complex roots
