then after you write a polynomial function multiply it out, do not leave in factored form. Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
If is a zero of a polynomial equation, then is a factor of the polynomial. Complex zeros always come in conjugate pairs, that is if is a zero, then is also a zero.
For your second problem, is a zero, so is also a zero. Hence your four factors are:
You can multiply out the factors for yourself. Hint: The product of two conjugates is the difference of two squares. Hint #2: Don't forget -- that will make the product of the two complex factors the SUM of two squares and eliminate the s.
