Question 71848: The degree three polynomial f(x) with real coefficients and leading coefficient 1, has -3 and +4i among its roots. Express f(x) as a product of linear and quadratic polynomials with real coefficients. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The degree three polynomial f(x) with real coefficients and leading coefficient 1, has -3 and +4i among its roots. Express f(x) as a product of linear and quadratic polynomials with real coefficients.
------------
f(x) = (x+3)(x-4i)(x+4i)
f(x) = (x+3)(x^2+16)
