Chapter 4: Polynomials A polynomial is an expression of the form p
... p(X) is a polynomial of degree n, then p(X) cannot have more than n roots. To see this, suppose that p(X) has more than n roots, say a1 , a2 , . . . , am with m > n. Then, according to what we have just learned, f (X) ≡ (X − a1 )(X − a2 ) · · · (X − am ) is a factor of p(X). This cannot happen beca ...
