You can put this solution on YOUR website! find all roots of the equation: x^3-x^2-14x+24=0
-------------
I graphed it and found a root at x = 3.
------------------
Use Snythetic Division to find the other roots:
3)....1....-1....-14....24
.......1.....2....-8...|..0
Quotient: x^2 + 2x - 8
Factor:
(x-4)(x+2)
-----------
Zeroes are x = -2,3, and 4
