The author proves the following theorem: Let \(p(z)\) be a polynomial of degree \(n\), with real coefficients, having all zeros with non-positive real part. Assume, for some \(r\), \(R\) with \(0<r<R\leq 1\) and some non- negative integer \(k\) that the following inequality holds \[ p(r)(1+R)^{n-k} R^ k < p(R)(1+r)^{n-k} r^ k. \] Then \(p(z)\) has at least \(k+1\) zeros in \(| z|<1\). This number is attained for \(p(z)=(z+1)^{n-k-1} z^{k+1}\).
