Hi,
x^4+9x^3+12x^2-11x+21=0 |Note: -3 is a root
using Synthetic Divsion
-3 1 9 12 -11 21
-3 -18 18 -21
1 6 -6 7 0
yields:
x^3 + 6x^2 - 6x + 7 = 0 |Note: -7 is a root
using Synthetic Divsion
-7 1 6 -6 7
-7 7 -7
1 -1 1 0
yields:
x^2 - x + 1 = 0
x+=+%281+%2B-+sqrt%28-3+%29%29%2F%282%29+
x+=+%281+%2B-+i%2Asqrt%283+%29%29%2F%282%29+
