Polynomial of the nth degree and its elements.












2












$begingroup$


I have to prove, that polynomial:



$ x^n + a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+...+a_2x^2+a_1x+a_0=0$
, where $ a_i= [-1,0,1] $ and $ i=0,1,.....,n $

doesn't have any solutions in the set
$$
begin{aligned}
( -infty,-2) cup (2, infty)
end{aligned}
$$

We know, that $ a_n=1$, so we know, that $ x_1+x_2+....+x_n=-2$.
It's all I have though, any
suggestions, what can I do in next step?

Let $f(x)=0$, then
begin{align}
0=&|x^n+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+cdots+a_1x+a_0|\
geq&|x|^n-|a_{n-1}||x|^{n-1}-cdots-|a_1||x^1|-|a_0|
end{align}

Write it as
begin{align}
|x|^nleq & |a_{n-1}||x|^{n-1}+cdots+|a_1||x^1|+|a_0|\
leq & |x|^{n-1}+|x|^{n-2}+cdots+|x|+1\
= & frac{|x|^{n}-1}{|x|-1}
end{align}

If $|x|>2$, we get $|x|-1>1$ and then
$$
|x|^nleq |x|^n-1.
$$

It is impossible.
