Question

Write a polynomial function of minimum degree with real coefficients whose zeros include those listed. Write the polynomial in standard form. -3i and root 3

Answer 1

For a polynomial with real coefients, if a+bi is a root then a-bi is also a root

-3i is a root so 3i must aslso be a root

the factored form of a polynomial with roots r1,r2,r3 is (x-r1)(x-r2)(x-r3)


so
roots are -3i, 3i and 3

(x-(-3i))(x-(3i))(x-(3))
(x+3i)(x-3i)(x-3)
expanded
x³-3x²+9x-27
