Question 458932: Suppose a polynomial function of degree 5 with rational coefficients has given numbers as zeros 2, 5, 5-4i,5.
The other zeros is_______. Found 2 solutions by math-vortex, richwmiller:Answer by math-vortex(648) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! important math fact that will help you here:
1. Non-real zeroes of polynomial functions always come in conjugate pairs. The conjugate pairs look very similar...just a sign change: a-bi and a+bi.
===
Since one of the zeroes is 5-4i, you must also have it's conjugate, 5+4i.
