QUESTION:

Prove that if a real number c satisfies a polynomial equation of the form

\(r_{3} x^{3}+r_{2} x^{2}+r_{1} x+r_{0}=0\),

where \(r_{0}, r_{1}, r_{2}, \text { and } r_{3}\) are rational numbers, then c satisfies an equation of the form

\(n_{3} x^{3}+n_{2} x^{2}+n_{1} x+n_{0}=0\),

where \(n_{0}, n_{1}, n_{2}, \text { and } n_{3}\) are integers.

Text Transcription:

r_3x^3 + r_2x^2 + r_1x + r_0 = 0

r_0, r_1, r_2, and r_3

n_3x^3 + n_2x^2 + n_1x + n_0 = 0

n_0, n_1, n_2, and n_3
