Answer: 2.
- A 0
- B 1
- C 2
- D 4
Correct answer: C. 2
Explanation: Product = 0 gives x = 1 or x = -3. Two distinct real roots.
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
