4. A polynomial has one root that equals 4 + 17i. Name one other root of this polynomial.
What the... I have been looking at this prob forever, how in hell am i supposed to solve this...
5. If a polynomial has one root in the form a + sqrt(b) , it has a second root in the form of a_____sqrt(b) .
I am not sure if my answer is correct. Would I put a negative in that blank?
6. The value 3 is an upper bound for the zeros of the function shown below.
f(x)= -3x^3+20x^2-36x+16
True<----- I think it is this one... because. when I plug in 3, i get 7. positive number.
False
7. The value -1 is a lower bound for the zeros of the function shown below.
(Points : 2)
True <---- I think it is this one. because when I plug in -1, i get 16.
False

4. The complex conjugate root theorem states that if a+bi is a root (for real numbers a and b), then a-bi is also a root. In this case, it would be 4 - 17i.
5. yes, it would be a - sqrt(b)
5. yes, it would be a - sqrt(b)

complex roots come in pairs, other root is just conjugate: 4-17i
