Hey guys,
I just started my physics major at college. I am taking a course in Calculus and I should hand in my second homework problems next week. The homework is on complex numbers and I finished almost everything but I can't figure out how to solve the last problem.
We are given a certian polynomial p(z) = z^16 + z^15 + z^14 +z^13.... and so on until z + 1. We should get 16 answers. I figured out I should multiply this whole polynomail with z - 1. I thought it would be an easier equation than: z^17 - z - 1. (I hope I haven't made a mistake there)
I can't figure out what the next steps are in order to solve this problem and I would appreciate some help
