WRITE AS PRODUCT OF 2 QUADRATIC FACTORS
ONE REDUCIBLE AND ANOTHER IRREDUCIBLE
THE POLYNOMIAL
P = X^4+6X^3-6X^2+6X-7
AS REASONED ABOVE POSSIBLE RATIONAL ROOTS ARE + OR - 1 AND 7 .
F(1)= 1+6-6+6-7 = 0….SO X=1 IS A ROOT..X-1=0…X-1 IS A FACTOR.
F(-7) = (-7)^4+6*(-7)^3-6*(-7)^2+6*(-7)-7=0
SO X= -7 IS A ROOT …X+7 = 0 ….X+7 IS A FACTOR
DIVIDING WITH THESE 2 FACTORS …
1) 1+6 -6 +6 -7
0+1+7+1+7
---------------------------
1 +7+1+7+0=REMAINDER
QUOTIENT = X^3 +7X^2 +X +7
-7) 1 +7+1+7
0 -7 +0 -7
------------------------
1 +0 +1 +0 = REMAINDER
QUOTIENT = X^2 +1
HENCE THE 2 QUADRATIC FACTORS ARE
(X^2+1) AND
(X-1)(X+7)= X^2+6X-7
ANOTHER METHOD IS TO LET
P = (X^2+AX+B)(X^2+CX+D)
AND SOLVING FOR A,B,C,D
COMPARING LIKE TERMS AND USING TRIAL & ERROR APPROACH
WE GET A=0,B=1,C=6 AND D=-7

Complex Analysis Question:
Suppose u(x,y) is harmonic everywhere on the plane.
a) If u(x,y)<= c, where c is a constant, for all (x,y) belongs to R^2 ,show that u is constant.[This is the Maximum Principle of Harmonic Functions.]
b) Repeat a) if u(x,y) >= c. [ This is the Minimum Principle of Harmonic Functions.]

Complex Analysis Question:
Suppose f is analytic on a bounded domain D and is continuous up to and on the boundry of D.
a) If f does not vanish, show that /f/ attains its minimum on the boundry of D.[apply the Maximum Principle to the reciprocal of f.]
b)Consider the function f(z)=z on the unit disk and use it to illustrate why one needs the condition that f does not vanish in order to prove part a).
