Question
Find the polynomial having roots at $ 1 $ , $ 2 $ , $ 3 $ , $ 4 $ , $ 5 $ , $ 6 $ and $ 42069 $ .
Answer
The polynomial generated from the given zeros is: $ P(x) = x^7-42090x^6+883624x^5-7362810x^4+30922339x^3-68321820x^2+74210436x-30289680 $
Explanation
Step 1: Turn the zeros into factors:
| Zero | Factor |
| $ 1 $ | $ x-1 $ |
| $ 2 $ | $ x-2 $ |
| $ 3 $ | $ x-3 $ |
| $ 4 $ | $ x-4 $ |
| $ 5 $ | $ x-5 $ |
| $ 6 $ | $ x-6 $ |
| $ 42069 $ | $ x-42069 $ |
Step 2: Multiply the factors together:
$$ P(x) = \left( x-1 \right) \cdot \left( x-2 \right) \cdot \left( x-3 \right) \cdot \left( x-4 \right) \cdot \left( x-5 \right) \cdot \left( x-6 \right) \cdot \left( x-42069 \right) = x^7-42090x^6+883624x^5-7362810x^4+30922339x^3-68321820x^2+74210436x-30289680 $$This page was created using
