What the fundamental theorem of calculus says is that a polynomial with n degree has n roots, or zeros.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What degree is this polynomial?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Precisely. So it has 3 zeros. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3 zeros

And what Lagrange meant to say was the fundamental theorem of "algebra". Not calculus :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry about that, got calculus on my mind :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No problem :P Its okay Lagrange we'll forgive ONE MISTAKE! Haha, jk jk.
