Every polynomial P(x) of degree n>0 has at least one zero in the complex number system.
N Zeros Theorem
Every polynomial P(x) of degree n>0 can be expressed as the product of n linear factors. Hence, P(x) has exactly n zeros, not necessarily distinct.

If a polynomial P(x) has real coefficients, and if a+bi is a zero of P(x), then its complex conjugate a-bi is also a zero of P(x)
Complex Conjugate Zeros Theorem
Find all remaining zeros given the information provided.Degree: 5, 2-4i and 3 and 7i are zeros
2+4i and -7i are also zeros
