  9. Concept Summary: • f(c ) = 0 • c is a zero of the polynomial function f(x) • x – c is a factor of polynomial function f(x) • c is a root or solution of polynomial function f(x) • If c is a real number, then (c,0) is an intercept of the graph f(x)

  10. Communicate Effectively • Theorem: A proposition that has been or is to be proved on the basis of explicit assumptions. • The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra: Every polynomial equation with a degree greater than 0 has at least one root in the set of complex numbers. • Complex Conjugates Theorem: For every polynomial, if there exists a complex root a+bi then a-bi also exists.

  11. COROLLARY: A Polynomial Equation of the form P(x) = 0 of degree ‘n’ with complex coefficients has exactly ‘n’ Roots in the set of Complex Numbers. Fundamental Theorem Of Algebra(your text) Every Polynomial Equation with a degree higher than zero has at least one root in the set of Complex Numbers.

  12. Real/Imaginary Roots If a polynomial has ‘n’ complex roots will its graph have ‘n’ x-intercepts? In this example, the degree n = 3, and if we factor the polynomial, the roots are x = -2, 0, 2. We can also see from the graph that there are 3x-intercepts.

  13. Real/ImaginaryRoots Just because a polynomial has ‘n’ complex roots doesn’t mean that they are all Real! In this example, however, the degree is still n = 3, but there is only oneRealx-intercept or root at x = -1, the other 2 roots must have imaginary components.

  14. Solve State the number and type of roots. Original equation Add 10 to each side. Example 5-1a Answer: This equation has exactly one real root, 10.

  21. d. Example 5-1h Answer: This equation has two real roots, –3 and 3, andtwo imaginary roots, 3iand –3i.

  22. Descartes’ Rule of Signs Arrange the terms of the polynomial P(x) in descending degree: • The number of times the coefficients of the terms of P(x) change sign = the number of Positive Real Roots (or less by any even number) • The number of times the coefficients of the terms of P(-x) change sign = the number of Negative Real Roots (or less by any even number) In the examples that follow, use Descartes’ Rule of Signs to predict the number of + and - Real Roots!

  23. State the possible number of positive real zeros, negative real zeros, and imaginary zeros of Example 5-2a Since p(x) has degree 6, it has 6 zeros. However, some of them may be imaginary.Use Descartes Rule of Signs to determine the number and type of real zeros.Count the number of changes in sign for the coefficients of p(x). yes – to + yes + to – no – to – no – to –

  24. x 1 Example 5-2b Since there are two sign changes, there are 2 or 0 positive real zeros. Find p(–x) and count the number of sign changesfor its coefficients. no – to – no – to – yes – to + yes + to – Since there are two sign changes, there are 2 or 0 negative real zeros.Make a chart of possible combinations.

  25. Example 5-2c Answer:

  26. State the possible number of positive real zeros, negative real zeros, and imaginary zeros of Example 5-2d Answer: The function has either 2 or 0 positive real zeros, 2 or 0 negative real zeros, and 4, 2, or 0imaginaryzeros.

  27. Find all of the zeros of Example 5-3a Since f(x) has degree of 3, the function has three zeros. To determine the possiblenumber and type of real zeros, examine the number of sign changes in f(x) and f(–x). yes yes no no no yes

  28. Example 5-3b The function has 2 or 0 positive real zeros and exactly 1 negative real zero. Thus, this function has either 2 positive real zeros and 1 negative real zero or 2 imaginary zeros and 1 negative real zero. To find the zeros, list some possibilities and eliminate those that are not zeros.Use a shortened form of synthetic substitution to find f(a) for several values of a. Each row in the table shows the coefficients of the depressed polynomial and the remainder.

  29. From the table, we can see that one zero occurs at x = –1. Since the depressed polynomial, ,is quadratic,use the Quadratic Formula to find the roots of the relatedquadratic equation Quadratic Formula Replace a with 1, b with –2, and c with 4. Example 5-3c

Read the Test Item• If 4 – i is a zero, then 4 + i is also a zero, according to the Complex Conjugate Theorem. So, x – 4, x – (4 – i), and x – (4 + i) are factors of the polynomial function.

  38. Find Roots/Zeros of a Polynomial We can find the Roots or Zeros of a polynomial by setting the polynomial equal to 0 and factoring. Some are easier to factor than others! The roots are: 0, -2, 2

  39. (x - 5) is a factor Find Roots/Zeros of a Polynomial If we cannot factor the polynomial, but know one of the roots, we can divide that factor into the polynomial. The resulting polynomial has a lower degree and might be easier to factor or solve with the quadratic formula. We can solve the resulting polynomial to get the other 2 roots:

  40. Ex: Find all the roots of If one root is 4 - i. Find Roots/Zeros of a Polynomial If the known root is imaginary, we can use the Complex Conjugates Theorem. Because of the Complex Conjugate Theorem, we know that another root must be 4 + i. Can the third root also be imaginary? Consider… Descartes: # of Pos. Real Roots = 2 or 0 Descartes: # of Neg. Real Roots = 1

  41. Ex: Find all the roots of If one root is 4 - i. Example (con’t) If one root is 4 - i, then one factor is [x - (4 - i)], and Another root is 4 + i, & another factor is [x - (4 + i)]. Multiply these factors:

  42. If the product of the two non-real factors is Ex: Find all the roots of then the third factor (that gives us the neg. real root) is the quotient of P(x) divided by : If one root is 4 - i. Example (con’t) The third root is x = -3

  43. Finding Roots/Zeros of Polynomials We use the Fundamental Thm. Of Algebra, Descartes’ Rule of Signs and the Complex Conjugate Thm. to predict the nature of the roots of a polynomial. We use skills such as factoring, polynomial division and the quadratic formula to find the zeros/roots of polynomials.
