ANSWER
The factored polynomial is (x - 4 + 3i)(x - 4 - 3i)(x + 9)(x - 3)
Step-by-step explanation
The conjugate roots theorem tells us that if a+bi is a zero for the polynomial, then its conjugate a - bi is a zero too.
In this problem, it is given that 4 - 3i is a zero, then 4 + 3i is a zero too.
Therefore, the given polynimal can be divided by:
The division gives as a result this polynomial:
Which is a second degree polynomial and we can use this rule to find its two roots:
In this polynomial a = 1, b = 6 and c = -27:
The other two roots (or zeros) of our polynomial are 3 and -9.
To write a factored polynomial, if x1, x2, x3 and x4 are roots, we have to write:
For our polynomial:
