Answer:

2/3, -8, -1/6, 4.

Explanation:

Explanation:

The rational root theorem states that if the leading coefficient is taken to be an and the constant coefficient is taken to be a0 the possible roots of the equation can be expressed as :

Now, from the given options, the possible choices can be :

A, B, C and E

D can be there because after taking any pair the rational root can't be 3

F can't be possible because an does't have 4 in its factors so denominator cannot be 4.
