Given

The zeros are given 2, 5 i and -5 i.

Step-by-step explanation

To determine the polynomial function ,

Use the general expression for the polynomial.


(x-a)(x-b)(x-c)=0

Substitute the values,


(x-2)(x-5i)(x+5i)=0

Use the identity to simplify the expression


(a-b)(a+b)=a^2-b^2

Then the expression becomes.


\begin{gathered} (x-2)(x^2-(5i)^2)=(x-2)(x^2+25) \\ (x-2)(x^2+25)=x^3+25x-2x^2-50 \end{gathered}

Answer

The answer is


f(x)=x^3-2x^2+25x-50
