Write an equation in standard form of a polynomial with real
Write an equation in standard form of a polynomial with real coefficients that has roots 1,4i, and -2-2i, that passes through the point (0,-68)?
Solution
Ans:: The equation in standard form of a polynomial with real coefficients that has roots 1,4i, and -2-2i
f(x) = k(x-1)(x-4i)(x-(-2-2i))
f(x) = k(x-1)(x-4i)(x+2+2i)
f(x) Passes through the point (0,-68) hence f(0) =-68
f(x) = k(x-1)(x-4i)(x+2+2i)
f(0) = k(0-1)(0-4i)(0+2+2i)=-68
8k = 68/(1-i)
8k = 34(1+i)
k= 4.25(1+i)
f(x) = 4.25(1+i)(x-1)(x-4i)(x+2+2i)
