Answer: Choice D
(x - 8) and (x - 3)
===============================================
Step-by-step explanation:
The term "root" is the same as "zeros of a function".
If 3 is a root, then x = 3 leads to x-3 = 0 after subtracting 3 from both sides.
If 8 is a root, then x = 8 leads to x-8 = 0 for similar reasoning
Use of the zero product property allows us to combine those two rules into the following
(x-3)(x-8) = 0
This shows that the two factors are (x-8) and (x-3)
The order of the factors doesn't matter because we can multiply two numbers in any order.
