Find a bound on the real zeros of the polynomial function

***
Use Rational Roots Theorem with synthetic divission
...0..|..1....2....-4....-7
...1..|..1....3....-1....-8
...2..|..1....4....4.....1 (2 is upper bound, real root between 1 & 2)
==========================
...0..|..1....2....-4....-7
..-1..|..1....1....-5....-2
..-2..|..1....0....-4.....1 (real root between -1 & -2)
