Corollary 6.4.  Let P(z) be a polynomial of degree [Graphics:Images/FunTheoremAlgebraMod_gr_14.gif].  Then P(z) can be expressed as the product of linear factors.  That is,  

            [Graphics:Images/FunTheoremAlgebraMod_gr_15.gif]  

where  [Graphics:Images/FunTheoremAlgebraMod_gr_16.gif]  are the zeros of P(z) counted according to multiplicity an A is a constant.  

Proof.

Corollary 6.4 is in the book.
