Polynomial Functions and Their Roots
Recalling the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, a polynomial function of degree greater than 0 always has a root. These roots can be found using diverse methods like the quadratic formula for quadratic polynomial functions. ax^2 + bx + c = 0 ⇓ x = - b ± sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)/2a However, factoring a polynomial function of greater degrees can be tough, as there are not easy to use formulas to do so. The good news is that looking at the terms of a polynomial function can be useful to find more characteristics of a given function. Consider the following functions and their roots.
| Polynomial Function | Roots |
|---|---|
| p(x) = x^3 - 6 x^2 + 11 x - 6 | 1, 2, 3 |
| g(x) =x^4 - 4 x^3 - 19 x^2 + 106 x - 120 | -5, 2, 3, 4 |
| m(x)=x^3 + 6 x^2 - 55 x - 252 | -9, -4, 7 |

Rational Root Theorem
Consider a polynomial where every coefficient is an integer. P(x) = a_n x^n + a_(n-1)x^(n-1)+⋯+a_1x+a_0 The following properties are true for the roots of the polynomial.
- Every integer root is a factor of the constant a_0.
- All rational roots must have a numerator that is a factor of a_0 and a denominator that is a factor of the leading coefficient a_n.
Proof
Rational Root TheoremTo prove this theorem, each of the properties will be considered individually. To start with the first property, consider a polynomial P(x) with integer coefficients that has an integer root x_r. This means that P(x_r)=0.
a_n x_r^n + a_(n-1)x_r^(n-1)+⋯+a_1x_r+a_0 = 0
Now a_0 is subtracted from both sides of the equation.
a_n x_r^n + a_(n-1)x_r^(n-1)+⋯+a_1x_r+a_0 = 0
SubEqn
LHS-a_0=RHS-a_0
a_n x_r^n + a_(n-1)x_r^(n-1)+⋯+a_1x_r = - a_0
FactorOut
Factor out x_r
x_r(a_n x_r^(n-1) + a_(n-1)x_r^(n-2)+⋯+a_1) = - a_0
Since the coefficients of P(x) are integers and x_r is an integer, the expression between the parentheses results in an integer. Also, - a_0 is the product of an integer and x_r, which means that x_r is a factor of a_0. This completes the proof of the first property.
For the second property, suppose that the polynomial P(x) has a rational root pq, such that the fraction is written in its simplest form. Again, it is obtained that P( pq)=0.
This time the equation will be modified in a different way.
a_n (p/q)^n + a_(n-1)(p/q)^(n-1)+⋯+a_1(p/q)+a_0 = 0
PowQuot
(a/b)^m=a^m/b^m
a_n (p^n/q^n)+ a_(n-1)(p^(n-1)/q^(n-1))+⋯+a_1(p/q)+a_0 = 0
MultEqn
LHS * q^n=RHS* q^n
a_n(p^n) + a_(n-1)(p^(n-1)q)+⋯ + a_1(pq^(n-1))+a_0(q^n) = 0
SubEqn
LHS-a_0(q^n)=RHS-a_0(q^n)
a_n(p^n) + a_(n-1)(p^(n-1)q)+⋯ + a_1(pq^(n-1)) = - a_0(q^n)
FactorOut
Factor out p
p(a_n p^(n-1) + a_(n-1)p^(n-2)q+⋯ + a_1q^(n-1)) = - a_0 q^n
Since the coefficients of P(x), p, and q are all integers, the expression between parentheses results in an integer. Also, since pq is written in its simplest form, p and q do not have a common factor, which means that p and q^n do not have a common factor either. Therefore, p is a factor of a_0.
The numerator of the root, p, is a factor of a_0.
If the modification is done differently, it is possible to come to the other property.
a_n(p^n) + a_(n-1)(p^(n-1)q)+⋯ + a_1(pq^(n-1))+a_0(q^n) = 0
SubEqn
LHS-a_n p^n=RHS-a_n p^n
a_(n-1)p^(n-1)q+⋯ + a_1pq^(n-1)+a_0 q^n = - a_n p^n
FactorOut
Factor out q
q(a_(n-1)p^(n-1)+⋯ + a_1pq^(n-2)+a_0 q^(n-1)) = - a_n p^n
With the same reasoning as before, it is possible to conclude that q, the denominator of the root, is a factor of a_n, finishing the proof.
As an example of how to apply this theorem, consider the following polynomial. p(x) = 6x^4 - 59x^3 + 94x^2 -49x + 8 The integer roots of the equation must be factors of the value of a_0, which in this case is 8. The factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8. Each of these values is substituted for x into the equation p(x) = 0 to determine which is a root.
| Equation | Result |
|---|---|
| 6* 1^4 - 59* 1^3 + 94* 1^2 -49* 1 + 8 = 0 | 0 = 0 ✓ |
| 6* 2^4 - 59* 2^3 + 94* 2^2 -49* 2 + 8 = 0 | -90 = 0 * |
| 6* 4^4 - 59* 4^3 + 94* 4^2 -49* 4 + 8 = 0 | -924 = 0 * |
| 6* 8^4 - 59* 8^3 + 94* 8^2 -49* 8 + 8 = 0 | 0 = 0 ✓ |
As determined, the integer roots are 1 and 8. The rational roots have a numerator that is a factor of a_0 and a denominator that is a factor of a_n. In this case,a_n is 6 with factors of 1, 2, 3, and 6. The following table displays the possible fractions that can be formed with the factors. The columns of the table are the factors of 8, and the rows are the factors of 6.
| 1 | 2 | 4 | 8 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 1/2 | 2/2=1 | 4/2=2 | 8/2=4 |
| 3 | 1/3 | 2/3 | 4/3 | 8/3 |
| 6 | 1/6 | 2/6=1/3 | 4/6=2/3 | 8/6=4/3 |
It is important to understand that the integers do not need to be tested because the integer factors have already been found. Now, each fraction will be tested to see if they are roots of the equation.
| Equation | Result |
|---|---|
| 6( 1/2)^4 - 59( 1/2)^3 + 94( 1/2)^2 -49( 1/2) + 8 = 0 | 0 = 0 ✓ |

To study, they decided to go over some exercises that the math professor assigned for homework in the past. One polynomial function, in particular, caught Izabella's attention. p(x) =x^4 - x^3 - 6x^2 + 14x - 12 Solve following exercises.
a
Find the integer roots of the given polynomial function.

Use the Rational Root Theorem.

Use synthetic division.
Solution
a
The integer roots of a polynomial function can be found using the Rational Root Theorem. This theorem indicates that the integer roots of a polynomial are factors of the constant term a_0, which in this case is -12. Below are the factors of -12 listed.
Positive:& 1,2,3,4,6,12 Negative:& -1,-2,-3,-4,-6,-12 To determine which of these is a root of the given polynomial function, each of the factors will be substituted into the equation p(x) = 0 to check which results in a true statement. First, the positive factors will be substituted.
| Equation | Solution |
|---|---|
| ( 1)^4 - ( 1)^3 - 6( 1)^2 + 14( 1) - 12 = 0 | -4 ≠ 0 * |
| ( 2)^4 - ( 2)^3 - 6( 2)^2 + 14( 2) - 12 = 0 | 0 = 0 ✓ |
| ( 3)^4 - ( 3)^3 - 6( 3)^2 + 14( 3) - 12 = 0 | 30 ≠ 0 * |
| ( 4)^4 - ( 4)^3 - 6( 4)^2 + 14( 4) - 12 = 0 | 140 ≠ 0 * |
| ( 6)^4 - ( 6)^3 - 6( 6)^2 + 14( 6) - 12 = 0 | 936 ≠ 0 * |
| ( 12)^4 - ( 12)^3 - 6( 12)^2 + 14( 12) - 12 = 0 | 18 300 ≠ 0 * |
The value of x=2 is a root of the function. Since the polynomial function is of degree 4, it is possible that one of the negative factors is also a root, so these values will be substituted next.
| Equation | Solution |
|---|---|
| ( - 1)^4 - ( - 1)^3 - 6( - 1)^2 + 14( - 1) - 12 = 0 | -30 ≠ 0 * |
| ( - 2)^4 - ( - 2)^3 - 6( - 2)^2 + 14( - 2) - 12 = 0 | -40 ≠ 0 * |
| ( -3)^4 - ( -3)^3 - 6( -3)^2 + 14( -3) - 12 = 0 | 0 = 0 ✓ |
| ( - 4)^4 - ( - 4)^3 - 6( - 4)^2 + 14( - 4) - 12 = 0 | 156 ≠ 0 * |
| ( -6)^4 - ( - 6)^3 - 6( - 6)^2 + 14( - 6) - 12 = 0 | 1200 ≠ 0 * |
| ( - 12)^4 - ( - 12)^3 - 6( - 12)^2 + 14( - 12) - 12 = 0 | 21 420 ≠ 0 * |
As can be seen in the table, -3 is also a root of p(x). Since every integer root has to be a factor of -12 and every factor was tested, the only integer roots of the given function are -3 and 2.
b
The Factor Theorem can be used to factor the given polynomial into a polynomials of a lesser degree. Since 2 is a root of p(x), (x-2) is a factor of p(x). This means that multiplying a polynomial q(x) by (x-2) results in p(x).
p(x) = (x-2)q(x) To find the polynomial q(x), which is one degree less than p(x), the polynomial p(x) has to be divided by the binomial (x-2). q(x) = x^4 - x^3 - 6x^2 + 14x - 12/x-2 This division can be performed by synthetic division. First, the coefficients are ordered and the leftmost coefficient goes down, below the horizontal line.

The resulting polynomial of the division can be written using the quotient. It is important to note that the quotient is one degree less than the original polynomial. q(x) = x^4 - x^3 - 6x^2 + 14x - 12/x-2 ⇓ q(x) = x^3 + x^2 - 4x + 6 Now the given function can be rewritten factoring the binomial (x-2). p(x) =(x-2)q(x) ⇓ p(x) = (x-2)(x^3 + x^2 - 4x + 6) A similar thing can be done to rewrite q(x). A root of the function p(x) is also a root of q(x). Therefore, the binomial (x+3) can be factored from q(x) using synthetic division again.

With this result, the given function can be rewritten again. p(x) = (x-2)(x^3 + x^2 - 4x + 6) ⇓ p(x) = (x-2)(x+3)(x^2 - 2x +2) Finally, to find the remaining two roots, the roots of the polynomial at the rightmost parentheses are needed. This time the Quadratic Formula will be used. First, the coefficients of the quadratic equation are identified. ax^2 + bx + c = 0 ⇓ 1x^2 + ( - 2)x + 2 = 0 Now these coefficients can be substituted into the Quadratic Formula.

Substitute values
x=- ( -2)±sqrt(( 2)^2 - 4( 1)( 2))/2( 1)
x=2±sqrt(-4)/2
There are two possible values for x to solve the polynomial. Since there is a square root of a negative number involved, the results are complex numbers.
| x = 2 + sqrt(-4)/2 | x = 2 - sqrt(-4)/2 |
|---|---|
| x = 2 + 2i/2 | x = 2 - 2i/2 |
| x = 1 + i | x = 1 - i |

Remember the Rational Root Theorem.
Solution
Considering the Rational Root Theorem, it is possible to find the integer and the rational roots. According to the theorem, the integer roots of the polynomial must be factors of the constant term of the polynomial, which is 2. Factors of $2$: -2, -1, 1, 2
Each of these factors is substituted into the equation g(x)=0 to determine which, if any, is a root of the function.

| 3( 2)^3 - ( 2)^2 - 6( 2) + 2 = 0 | 10 ≠ 0 * |
No value resulted in a true statement. This means there is no integer root of the function. However, the Rational Root Theorem also allows to look for the rational roots of a polynomial. These roots can be written as follows. x = p/q In this expression, p, the numerator, is a factor of the constant term q, the denominator, is a factor of the leading coefficient, which in this case is 3. Previously the factors of 2 were presented. Below are the factors of 3. Factors of $3$: -3, -1, 1, 3 Since these factors must be denominators and the integer roots were already considered, the only factors to be considered are -3 and 3, which result in the following rational numbers. - 2/3, - 1/3, 1/3, 2/3 Again, each of these numbers is substituted into the equation as before to verity which, if any, is a root of the function.

Using this result, it is possible to rewrite the given function. It is important to remember that the resulting polynomial is always one degree less than the original one. g(x) = 3x^3 - x^2 - 6x + 2 ⇓ g(x) = (x-1/3)(3x^2 -6) The roots of the function are also roots of the polynomial inside the rightmost parentheses.

The Irrational Roots of a Polynomial
The Rational Root Theorem helps determine the integer and rational roots of a polynomial. One might expect a similar theorem exists used to find irrational roots. Unfortunately, there is not. But wait, it is not all bad news. A theorem exists that does involve the irrational roots of a polynomial.
Rule
Irrational Conjugate Root Theorem
Let P(x) be a polynomial function whose coefficients are rational. If a and b are rational such that sqrt(b) is an irrational number and a+sqrt(b) is a root of P(x), then its irrational conjugate a-sqrt(b) is also a root of P(x).
P(a+sqrt(b)) = 0 ⇒ P(a-sqrt(b)) = 0
Proof
Let a, b be rational numbers and sqrt(b) be an irrational number. Suppose that the irrational number a+sqrt(b) is a root of the polynomial P(x) with rational coefficients c_i.
P(a+sqrt(b))= ∑_(i=0)^n c_i ( a+sqrt(b) ) ^i = 0
Since the conjugate of zero is zero, the expression's conjugate on the left-hand side is also zero. P(a+sqrt(b))=∑_(i=0)^n c_i * ( a+sqrt(b) ) ^i = 0
Next, using the properties of conjugation, the polynomial can be rewritten.
| ∑_(i=0)^n c_i * ( a+sqrt(b) ) ^i | Polynomial |
| ∑_(i=0)^n c_i * ( a+sqrt(b) ) ^i | Conjugate of a sum is the sum of the conjugates |
| ∑_(i=0)^n c_i ( a+sqrt(b) ) ^i | Conjugate of a product is the product of the conjugates |
| ∑_(i=0)^n c_i ( a+sqrt(b) ) ^i | Conjugate of a power is the power of the conjugate |
| ∑_(i=0)^n c_i ( a+sqrt(b) ) ^i | Conjugate of a rational number is itself |
This final expression is equal to 0. P(a+sqrt(b)) = ∑_(i=0)^n c_i ( a+sqrt(b) ) ^i =0 Notice that the middle expression is equal to the value of the polynomial at a+sqrt(b). Using this and the fact that the conjugate of a+sqrt(b) is a-sqrt(b), this equation can be rewritten as follows. ∑_(i=0)^n c_i ( a+sqrt(b) )^i &= 0 &⇓ P( a+sqrt(b) ) &= 0 &⇓ P( a-sqrt(b)) &= 0 In conclusion, the irrational number a-sqrt(b) makes the polynomial p(x) zero, and, therefore, it is also a root of P(x).

Rational and Irrational Roots
Other than being really good at math, Izabella is also known for making excellent cakes. To motivate her friends, she decided to organize a little contest and give a cake to the winner.
The challenge is to write a polynomial function p(x) of degree 3 that only has integer coefficients. Additionally, the function must have roots -5 and 1-sqrt(3). Each of her friends wrote the following functions as their answers. Vincenzo: & p(x) =x^3 + 2x^2 + 10x - 12 Zain: & p(x) =x^3 - 4x^2 - 16x - 14 Ali: & p(x) =x^3 + 3x^2 - 12x - 10 Kevin: & p(x) =x^3 - 2x^2 + 10x + 13 Who will win Izabella's tasty cake?

Hint
Remember the Irrational Conjugate Root Theorem
Solution
It is mentioned that the polynomial is of degree 3. Considering the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, the given polynomial has three roots. Two of those roots are already given.
x_1 &= - 5 x_2 &= 1 - sqrt(3)
All the roots of the polynomial are needed to determine the correct polynomial. Since every coefficient of the polynomial is an integer and the solution x_2 = 1 - sqrt(3) is an irrational number, by the Irrational Conjugate Root Theorem, the irrational conjugate of 1 - sqrt(3) has to be a root of the function.
x_3 = 1 + sqrt(3)
Using the Factor Theorem, it is possible to write the polynomial by multiplying the binomials produced by the roots.
(x + 5)(x - (1-sqrt(3)))(x - (1+sqrt(3)))_(p(x))
To expand this expression clearly, first the two rightmost binomials will be multiplied.
(x-(1-sqrt(3)))(x-(1+sqrt(3)))

Now, this result will be multiplied by the binomial (x+5).

With this result, it is possible to write the correct answer. p(x) = x^3 + 3x^2 - 12x - 10 Therefore, Ali will be the winner. Additionally, it can be checked that the polynomials written by the other friends did not meet the conditions Izabella requested. Zain, in particular, feels sad to have not gotten their answer correct.

Hint
Consider the Irrational Conjugate Root Theorem.
Solution
It is given that the polynomial function p(x) has a degree of 4. Then, by the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, the function has four roots, counting repeating roots as multiple roots. Two roots are already given.
x_1 &= 2 - sqrt(5) x_2 &= sqrt(7)
Since it is known that the coefficients are integers, they can be used to find the other two roots. Recall that the Irrational Conjugate Root Theorem states that if an irrational number a + sqrt(b) is a root of a polynomial function with rational coefficients, then the irrational conjugate a - sqrt(b) is also a root. The given roots can be written as indicated.
x &= a + sqrt(b) [0.5em]
x_1 &= 2 + (-sqrt(5)) x_2 &= 0 + sqrt(7)
Considering the Irrational Conjugate Theorem, the remaining two roots are the irrational conjugates of the given roots.
lcl
x_3 = 2 - (-sqrt(5)) &⇒& x_3 = 2+sqrt(5) x_4 = 0 - sqrt(7) &⇒& x_4 = -sqrt(7)
Zain could be on to something with rocking this new fashion while studying!

Discussion
The Complex Roots of a Polynomial
The Rational and Irrational Roots Theorems provide information about the integer, rational, and irrational roots of a polynomial. Therefore, in some way, the real roots of a polynomial are covered by these theorems. Next, a theorem involving the complex roots of a polynomial is presented.
Rule
Complex Conjugate Root Theorem
Let P(x) be a polynomial function whose coefficients are real. If a complex number a+bi is a root of P(x), then the root's complex conjugate, a-bi, is also a root of P(x).
P(a+bi) = 0 ⇒ P(a-bi) = 0
Proof
Let p(x) be a polynomial with real coefficients c_k.
P(x)= ∑_(k=0)^n c_kx^k
Using the properties of conjugation, the conjugate of the polynomial evaluated at a+bi can be rewritten as expressed in the following table.
| P(a+bi)=∑_(k=0)^n c_k (a+bi)^k | The conjugate of the polynomial evaluated at a+bi |
| P(a+bi)= ∑_(k=0)^n c_k (a+bi)^k | The conjugate of a sum is the sum of the conjugates. |
| P(a+bi)= ∑_(k=0)^n c_k (a+bi)^k | The conjugate of a product is the product of the conjugates. |
| P(a+bi)= ∑_(k=0)^n c_k (a+bi)^k | The conjugate of a power is the power of the conjugate. |
| P(a+bi)= ∑_(k=0)^n c_k(a+bi) ^k | The conjugate of a real number is itself. |
| P(a+bi)= ∑_(k=0)^n c_k(a-bi)^k | The conjugate of a+bi is a-bi. |
| P(a+bi)=P(a-bi) | The polynomial evaluated at a-bi |
It is given that a+bi is a root of the polynomial p(x). P(a+bi)=0 The conjugate of the real number 0 is 0. Therefore, the conjugate of the polynomial evaluated at a+bi is 0. P(a+bi)=0 This equation, along with the last equality in the table, shows that a-bi, the conjugate of a+bi, is also a root of the polynomial. P(a+bi) = P(a-bi) [0.1cm] P(a+bi) = 0 ⇓ P(a-bi)=0

Integer and Complex Roots
As Zain progresses with their studies, they build up the courage to ask Izabella for extra help with polynomials that have complex roots.
They were given the numbers x_1=4 and x_2=3+i which are roots of the following equation. Consider that b, c, and d are integers. x^3 + bx^2 + cx + d = 0 Zain needs to answer the following questions.

Hint
a
Remember the Complex Conjugate Root Theorem.
b
Multiply the binomials produced by the roots of the equation.
Solution
a
By the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, since the given polynomial equation is of degree 3, the equation has three roots. Two were already given.
x_1 &= 4 x_2 &= 3 + i It can be noted that the root x_2 is a complex root. Since all the coefficients are integers, the conjugate of x_2 is also a root of the equation, by the Complex Conjugate Root Theorem. x_2 = 3 + i ⇒ x_3 = 3 - i Since this is the third root, it is the only root remaining aside from the given two.
b
The given polynomial equation is the multiplication of the binomials formed with each of its solutions.
x^3 + bx^2 + cx + d = (x-4)(x-(3+i))(x-(3-i)) This is true because of the Factor Theorem. Expanding the right-hand side expression will give the values of b, c, and d. To do this multiplication, the binomials with complex numbers will be multiplied first.

By the Complex Conjugate Root Theorem, since the polynomial's coefficients are real, the conjugates of any complex root must also be a root. Two complex roots were given.
x_1 = 5 + 3i x_2 = 2 - 6i
b
As mentioned in Part A, the conjugates of the given roots are also roots of the polynomial by the Complex Conjugate Root Theorem.
5 + 3i ⇒ 5 - 3i 2 - 6i ⇒ 2 + 6i Since the least degree of the polynomial is 4, these are the remaining roots of the polynomial.

Feeling so proud of Zain, Izabella feels really confident that all of her friends will do well when dealing with their math assignments. To complete this study session, she proposes a problem that has a polynomial with both irrational and complex roots.

Hint
a
Recall the Complex Conjugate and the Irrational Conjugate Root Theorems
Solution
a
Considering the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, it is known that a polynomial of degree 4 has 4 solutions. Therefore, there are two remaining solutions. The given solutions can be used to find the remaining solutions. The solution x_1 is a complex number.
x_1 = 7 - 3i Also, it is stated that the polynomial has integer coefficients, which are real coefficients. If a complex number is a root of a polynomial with real coefficients, the Complex Conjugate Root Theorem states that the complex conjugate of such root must also be a solution. x_1 = 7 - 3i ⇒ x_3 = 7 + 3i On the other hand, the other solution is a real number. Since 5 is a prime number, its square root is an irrational number. Therefore, the given root is an irrational number. x_2 = 4 + sqrt(5) This time the Irrational Conjugate Root Theorem is useful. This theorem says that if an irrational number is a root of a polynomial with rational coefficients, the corresponding irrational conjugate is also a root of the polynomial. x_2 = 4 + sqrt(5) ⇒ x_4 = 4 - sqrt(5) Consequently, the two remaining roots are the following. x_3 &= 7 + 3i x_4 &= 4 - sqrt(5)
b
The expression of the polynomial g(x) can be obtained by multiplying the binomials generated by each root.
| Root | Binomial |
|---|---|
| 7+3i | x-(7+3i) |
| 7-3i | x-(7-3i) |
| 4+sqrt(5) | x-(4+sqrt(5)) |
| 4-sqrt(5) | x-(4-sqrt(5)) |
Multiplying four binomials can be messy. To make the multiplication a little easier, the binomials will be multiplied in pairs. First, the binomials of complex roots will be multiplied.

About the Roots
Previously, it was explained how the coefficients of a polynomial function can give information about its roots, including the irrational and complex roots. This can be especially helpful considering that the graph of a function also gives some information. For example, consider a polynomial function p(x). p(x) = (x-2)^2(x-5) ⇓ p(x) = x^3 - 9 x^2 + 24 x - 20 By the Factor Theorem, the roots of the polynomial are 2 and 5, with a multiplicity of 2 and 1, respectively. Now consider the graph of p(x).
Looking at the graph, it can be noted that the graph does not cross the x-axis when touching the root with multiplicity of 2, but the graph crosses the axis on the next root, with multiplicity of 1. Now consider a different function. It will be written factored because the coefficients are big. p_2(x) = (x-2)^3(x-5)^4 The roots of the polynomial are 2 and 5 again, but this time the roots have a multiplicity of 3 and 4 respectively. Consider the graph of p_2(x).
This time, the function's graph crosses the x-axis on root 2 and it does not on root 5. From this, it is possible to draw two conclusions.
- The graph of a function crosses the x-axis on a root if the root's multiplicity is odd.
- The graph of a function does not cross the x-axis on a root if the root's multiplicity is even.
But what happens if the root is a complex number? Think about the following function. p_3(x) = (x-2)^2(x-5)(x-2i)(x+2i) The graph of this function is presented next.

We are told that the coefficients of the original polynomial were real. Notice is that the root that the boys already factored out is a complex root. By the Complex Conjugate Root Theorem, we know that the complex conjugate of 5i is also a root. x_2 = -5i We can use the Factor Theorem to write the binomial factor of the polynomial function. Factor: (x+5i) We can divide the given polynomial function f(x) by this factor to get a polynomial of a lower degree by using synthetic division. First, the coefficients are ordered and the leftmost coefficientis brought down below the horizontal line.
We multiply the newest number under the horizontal line by 51 and write the product inside the division bracket under the next coefficient. The next column is added and the sum written under the line. The procedure is then repeated to the end.
The quotient of the synthetic division is the result of the polynomial division. It is important to remember that the quotient is one degree less than the original polynomial. f_2(x) = x^2 + x -2 This equation can be solved using the Quadratic Formula. Let's identify the coefficients. ax^2 + bx + c = 0 ⇓ 1x^2 + 1x + ( -2) = 0 Now these coefficients can be substituted into the Quadratic Formula.
Adding and subtracting will give us the two remaining roots.
| x = -1 ± 3/2 | |
|---|---|
| x = -1 + 3/2 | x = -1 - 3/2 |
| x = 2/2 | x = -4/2 |
| 1 | -2 |

Dylan thinks that the complex number 1+2i is a root of the polynomial function p(x) by the Complex Conjugate Root Theorem. Let's start by remembering the theorem.
Complex Conjugate Root Theorem |- If a complex number a+bi is a root of a polynomial function with real coefficients p(x), then the root's complex conjugate, a−bi, is also a root of p(x).
We can see that the numbers 1-2i and 1+2i are indeed complex conjugates, but the theorem has some conditions that need to be met. Let's look at the coefficients of the given polynomial function. p(x)= x^3 - (1 - 2 i) x^2 - 4 x + (4 - 8 i) Notice that two of the coefficients have an imaginary part, which makes these numbers complex. The theorem says that the coefficients of the polynomial function have to be real. Because of this, Dylan is not correct.

Looking at the given root, we can see that it is a complex number. All of the coefficients of the given function are integers. By the Complex Conjugate Root Theorem, we know that the complex conjugate of x_1 is also a root. x_2 = -sqrt(2) + 3i ⇒ x_2 = -sqrt(2) - 3i Now we have two roots of the function. We can use the Factor Theorem to write a binomial that is factor of the polynomial function for each of the roots. Factor One: & (x-(-sqrt(2) + 3i)) Factor Two: & (x-(-sqrt(2) - 3i)) Now we can divide the given polynomial function f(x) by each of these factors to get a polynomial with a lower degree. We can do this with synthetic division. First, the coefficients are ordered and the leftmost coefficient is brought down below the horizontal line. Let's begin with x_1.
We multiply the newest number under the horizontal line by -sqrt(2) + 3i and write the product inside the division bracket under the next coefficient. The next column is added and the sum written under the line. The procedure is then repeated to the end. The quotient of the synthetic division is the result of the polynomial division. It is important to remember that the quotient is one degree less than the original polynomial.
We can reduce this polynomial by dividing by the second root x_2. Let's do it!
Now we rewrite the quotient as a polynomial of lower degree. n_2(x) = x^2 - 2sqrt(2)x + 11 We will use the Quadratic Formula to find the remaining two roots. Let's start by identifying the coefficients to substitute into the formula. ax^2 + bx + c = 0 ⇓ 1x^2 + ( -2sqrt(2))x + 11 = 0 Now we can substitute these values into the Quadratic Formula to find the roots.
Finally, we can write the last two roots. We did it! x_3 &= sqrt(2) + 3i x_4 &= sqrt(2) -3i
