You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y=.1x^3+2x^2-x-3 \"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Enter the equation after selecting \"y=\".
\n" ); document.write( "Select \"ZOOM\"
\n" ); document.write( "Select \"Standard\" to see the graph
\n" ); document.write( "Adjust the WINDOW by changing xmin to -25
\n" ); document.write( "so you can see all the graph.
\n" ); document.write( "Select \"CALC\"
\n" ); document.write( "Select \"Zero\"
\n" ); document.write( "Make the \"Left Bound\" x=-20.53
\n" ); document.write( "Select \"Enter\"
\n" ); document.write( "Make the \"Right Bound\" x=-20.15
\n" ); document.write( "Select \"Enter\"
\n" ); document.write( "Select \"Enter\" again
\n" ); document.write( "You should have a display that says x=-20.4178 and y=0
\n" ); document.write( "This is your 1st \"ZERO\".
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Select \"CALC\" again.
\n" ); document.write( "Move the cursor to x=-1.170213
\n" ); document.write( "Make this the \"Left Bound\".
\n" ); document.write( "Move the cursor to -.7978723 and make it the \"Right Bound\".
\n" ); document.write( "Select \"Enter\" twice to see the 2nd ZERO.
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Repeat the same process to find the 3rd ZERO.
\n" ); document.write( "Cheers,
