Answer:

The polynomial is:

p(x) = x^3 + 2x^2 - 3x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

A third degree polynomial can be written in function of it's zeros x_1, x_2, x_3 the following way:

p(x) = a(x - x_1)(x - x_2)(x - x_3)

In which a is the leading coefficient.

Integer coefficient that have zeros: 1+2i, 1-2i, -4

Leading coefficient: 1

So

p(x) = 1(x - (1+2i))(x - (1-2i))(x - (-4))

p(x) = (x - 1 -2i)(x - 1 + 2i)(x + 4)

p(x) = ((x-1)^2 - (2i)^2)(x + 4)

p(x) = (x^2 - 2x + 1 - 4i^2)(x + 4)

Since i^2 = -1

p(x) = (x^2 - 2x + 1 + 4)(x + 4)

p(x) = (x^2 - 2x + 5)(x + 4)

p(x) = x^3 + 4x^2 - 2x^2 - 8x + 5x + 20

p(x) = x^3 + 2x^2 - 3x + 20

If a rectangle or prism has a volume of 432 in.³ and the height of the prism is 9 inches what are the dimensions of the base
Deffense [45]
You first do 432 divided by 9 which is 48. However, there could be multiple dimensions for the base because 48 is a composite number. One example could be 6 by 8
