Question 2
According to the complex conjugates theorem, if 5 - ¿ is a root of a function what else is a root?
o 5ti
5ti
5i
-5 - i

Respuesta :

Answer: [tex]5+i[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, you know that the Complex numbers have the following form:

[tex]a+bi[/tex]

 Where "a" and "b" are real numbers and "i" is the imaginary unit (Remember that [tex]i=\sqrt{-1}[/tex])

Having a polynomial P(x) with real coefficients, the Complex Conjugates rTheorem  states that if [tex]a + bi[/tex] is a root of the the polynomial, then  its complex conjugate [tex]a- bi[/tex]  is also a root of the  polynomial.

In other words,  this Theorem states that the complex roots always appear in conjugate pairs.

Based on this, if you have the following root of a function:

[tex]5-i[/tex]

Then, its complex conjugate is also root of a function. This is:

[tex]5+i[/tex]
