Write an equation of a 4th degree polynomial with zeros at 1, -1, 3i, and -3i

f(x) = + 8x² - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the zeros of a polynomial say x = a and x = b, then

the corresponding factors are (x - a) and (x - b)

The polynomial is the the product of the factors

f(x) = (x - a)(x - b)

Given zeros x = 1, x = - 1, x = 3i and x = - 3i, then corresponding factors are

(x - 1), (x + 1), (x - 3i) and (x + 3i), then

f(x) = (x - 1)(x + 1)(x - 3i)(x + 3i) ← expand in pairs using FOIL

     = (x² - 1)(x² - 9i²) → note i² = - 1, thus

     = (x² - 1)(x² + 9) ← distribute

     = + 9x² - x² - 9 ← collect like terms

     = + 8x² - 9

5x+10 is the correct one
