- Suppose that f(x),g(x), and h(x) are polynomials over the field F, each of which has positive degree, and that f(x)=g(x)h(x). Prove that the zeros of f(x) in F consist of the zeros of g(x) in F together with the zeros of h(x) in F.arrow_forwardProve that any field that contains an intergral domain D must contain a subfield isomorphic to the quotient field Q of D.arrow_forwardSince this section presents a method for constructing a field of quotients for an arbitrary integral domain D, we might ask what happens if D is already a field. As an example, consider the situation when D=5. a. With D=5, write out all the elements of S, sort these elements according to the relation , and then list all the distinct elements of Q. b. Exhibit an isomorphism from D to Q.arrow_forward
- Let be a field. Prove that if is a zero of then is a zero ofarrow_forwardLabel each of the following as either true or false. If a set S is not an integral domain, then S is not a field. [Type here][Type here]arrow_forwardLet F be a field and f(x)=a0+a1x+...+anxnF[x]. Prove that x1 is a factor of f(x) if and only if a0+a1+...+an=0. Prove that x+1 is a factor of f(x) if and only if a0+a1+...+(1)nan=0.arrow_forward

[Type here]arrow_forwardProve that if F is an ordered field with F+ as its set of positive elements, then F+nen+, where e denotes the multiplicative identity in F. (Hint: See Theorem 5.34 and its proof.) Theorem 5.34: Well-Ordered D+ If D is an ordered integral domain in which the set D+ of positive elements is well-ordered, then e is the least element of D+ and D+=nen+.arrow_forwardIf is a finite field with elements, and is a polynomial of positive degree over , find a formula for the number of elements in the ring .arrow_forward
