One factor of g(x)=x^3+x^2-9x-9 is x-3. Find the remaining factors.
--------------------------
If x-3 is a factor, x=3 is a root.
Use Synthetic Division to find the other roots.
-------------------------
3)...1....1....-9....-9
......1....4.....3..|..0
Quotient: x^2 + 4x + 3
----------------------------
Factor the Quotient:
(x+3)(x+1)
Since these are factors of f(x), The missing roots are x=-3 and x=-1
