Question 596268: Find all the roots by using synthetic division and possible rational root theorem
F(x) = 2x^3-9x^2+9x-13
I have tried to do this multiple times but I can't figure it out and it seems that 2 of the answers are imaginary and the third answer is 3.763194

Find all the roots by using synthetic division and possible rational root theorem
F(x) = 2x^3-9x^2+9x-13

------------
I graphed the cubic and found:
Rational Root: 3.763194
There are also 2 imaginary roots.

It has no rational roots.
You can only use technology or iterative means to find
the irrational root you found 3.763194021
and the two irrational complex roots:
.368403 ± 1.26156i
No doubt there was a typo in one of those coefficient.
Sometimes there are errors in books and computer material.
F(x) = 2x^3-9x^2+9x-3
