Question 1103671: N =4; -4(⅓), and 2 +3i are zeros; f(1) = 100
1)Since 32+3i are zeros. Conjugate them making it 2-3i.
2)Then set x to each one.
3) x=-3, x=�, x=3+2i, x=3-2i
x+3=0, 4x=1, x-3-2i=0, x-3+2i=0, x+3=0, 4x=1,x-3-2i=0, x-3+2i=0, 4x-1 =0
4) Use the zero factor property in reverse. When doing that multiply it by a constant �a�
a(x+3)(4x-1)(x-3-2i)=0
5)
F(x) = a(x+3)(4x-1)(x-3-2i)(x-3+2i)
F(x) = a(x+3)(4x-1)[(x-3)-2i][(x-3)+2i]
F(x) = a(4x�+11x-3)[(x-3)�-(2i)�]
F(x) = a(4x�+11x-3)[x�-6x+9-4i�]
F(x) = a(4x�+11x-3)[x�-6x+9-4(-1)]
F(x) = a(4x�+11x-3)[x�-6x+9+4]
F(x) = a(4x�+11x-3)(x�-6x+13)
F(x) = a(4x4-24x�+52x�+11x�-66x�+143-3x�+18x-39)
F(x) = a(4x4-13x�-17x�+161x-39)
F(1) = 100 = a(4∙14-13∙1^3-17∙1^2+161∙1-39)
F(1) = 100 = a(4∙16-13∙8-17∙4+161∙2-39)
F(1) = 100 = a(96)
100/96=a
