First statement: Not true. It can be a polynomial where there is no value c such that f(c)=0 (a root of the polynomial).

Second statement: Not true.

Third statement: True. We cannot conclude anything about the root of the polynomial with the information we got.

Fourth statement. Not true. It can be 0 or not.

Answer: Option 3.
