A polynomial function P(x) with rational coefficients has the given roots. Find two additional roots of P(x)=0 #7. 2+3i and√7
the conjugate of each number
How would you write that with √7 and 3i ?
the conjugate of \(a+bi\) is \(a-bi\) and so the conjugate of \(2+3i\) is \(2-3i\)
the conjugate of \(\sqrt7\) is just \(-\sqrt7\)
do you actually have to find the polynomial?
Is that the final answer? Sorry, this is a new lesson and my teacher can't teach for jack
the answer to "find two additional roots" is \(2-3i,-\sqrt7\)
Its just asking me to find the additional roots.
the answer to "find the polynomial" is a different matter
ok then you are done
What about something like this... 3-2√2 and 1 + √3
same as before \(3+2\sqrt3\) and \(1-\sqrt3\)
Thank you so much! :)
