You can put this solution on YOUR website! Suppose that a polynomial function of degree 4 with rational coeficients has the given numbers as zeros. find the other zero(s).
-2,3,4,1-i
-----------------------------
That is contradictory information.
If the coefficients are rational, 1+i would also have to be a zero.
---
But that would mean the function has 5 zeroes,
and no 4th degree function can have 5 zeroes.
