Question

Write the coefficients of the polynomial p(z) = z⁵ – 2z² + 4.

Answer 1

Given,

Polynomial p(z) = z⁵ – 2z² + 4

Now first break the given equation,

We get,

Coefficient of z⁵ = 1

Coefficient of z⁴ = 0

Coefficient of z³ = 0

Coefficient of z² = – 2

Coefficient of z = 0

Constant term = 4

Therefore 1, 0, 0, – 2, 0, 4 are coefficients of the polynomial p(z)
