.

It is the  " easy case "  of the Rational Zeros Theorem,  since the leading coefficient of the polynomial is  1  (one).

Therefore,  according to the  Rational  Zeros  Theorem,  the possible rational roots in this case
are among the divisors of  10.

So,  your list is  { +/-1, +/-2, +/-5, +/-10 }.
