Answer:
Being lost on this problem is well-earned. I don't know what the question is looking for. There appear to be no options, other than to identify some unique feature of the calculation.
If a polynomial has one root in the form of (a+
) and a second root in the form of (a-
) the polynomial must have the form of a^2 + b.
Explanation:
I'll take a guess at how this problem wants the sentence to end. We are told there are two roots a polynomial. We can write the polynomial as the product of both roots, which would be equal to zero:
(a+
)*(a-
)
Multiply the factors to obtain:
a^2 - a
+ a
+ (
)^2
a^2 + b
So one might say:
If a polynomial has one root in the form of (a+
) and a second root in the form of (a-
) the polynomial must have the form of a^2 + b.
But that's my guess at something that would be a true statement.
