Sabendo-se que -1 é uma das raízes do polinômio P(x)= x^3 - x^2 + x + 3, determine a soma dos módulos das outras raízes. PFV ME AJUDEM !!
Question:
Knowing that −1 is one of the roots of the polynomial P(x) = x³ − x² + x + 3, determine the sum of the modulus of the other roots.
Answer:
Roots: a, b, c (c = −1)
(x − a) (x − b) (x − c) = x³ − x² + x + 3
x³ − (a+b+c)x² + (ab+ac+bc)x − abc = x³ − x² + x + 3
Sum of roots:
a + b + c = 1
a + b − c = 1
a + b = 2
b = 2 − a
Product of roots:
abc = −3
ab(−1) = −3
ab = 3
a(2−a) = 3
2a − a² = 3
a² − 2a = −3
a² − 2a + 1 = −3 + 1
(a − 1)² = −2
a − 1 = ± i√2
a = 1 ± i√2
b = 1 ∓ i√2
Sum of the modulus of the other roots
= |1 + i√2| + |1 − i√2|
= √3 + √3
= 2√3
OMG same man!
