Given that −4i is a zero, factor the following polynomial function completely. Use the Conjugate Roots Theorem, if applicable. f(x)=x4−2x3+x2−32x−240

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, the Conjugate Roots Theorem states that if a complex number is a zero of real polynomial its conjugate is a zero too. It means that (x-4i)(x+4i) are factors of f(x).

The coefficient of the leading term is 1 and the constant term is -240 = 16 * (-15), so we a re looking for a real number such that.

We identify the coefficients for the like terms, it comes

a = -2 and 16a = -32 (which is equivalent). So, we can write in .

The sum of the zeroes is 2=5-3 and their product is -15=-3*5, so we can factorise by (x-5)(x+3), which gives.

And we can write in

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you

the temperature will be -18 just do 62 + (-40) + (-40)
