Find all real solutions of the equation.
\n" ); document.write( "x3 − 7x2 + 6x − 47 = x2 + 1
\n" ); document.write( "x^3-8x^2+6x-48=0
\n" ); document.write( "using Rational Roots Theorem:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "...0...|.....1......-8........6........-48..........
\n" ); document.write( "...1...|.....1......-7......-1........-49..
\n" ); document.write( "...2...|.....1......-6......-6........-60...
\n" ); document.write( "...7...|.....1......-1......-1........-55.
\n" ); document.write( "...8...|.....1........0.......6...........0 (8 is a root)
\n" ); document.write( "f(x)=(x-8)(x^2+6)
\n" ); document.write( "roots are 8 and 2 imaginary roots
\n" ); document.write( "note: I skipped trying some positive numbers because I knew the answer is 8 from my graphic calculator. Anyway, I showed you the method you can use.
