i am more concerned with the steps 

thank you

 

1.     Manu determines the roots of a polynomial equation by applying the theorems he knows. He organizes the results of these theorems.

From the fundamental theorem of algebra, Manu knows there are 3 roots to the equation.

From Descartes’ rule of sign, Manu finds no sign changes in and 3 sign changes in.

The rational root theorem yields  as the list of possible rational roots.

The lower bound of the polynomial is. -6.

The upper bound of the polynomial is 1.

What values in Manu’s list of rational roots should he try in synthetic division in light of these findings?
