<PRE><B>Question 177796</B>
find all the real and imaginary zeros of f(x)=x cubed+xsquared+13x-15; given that 1 is a zero of the function
------------------
f(x) = x^3 +x^2 + 13x - 15
-------------------------------
Find the quotient when dividing f(x) by x-1:
------------------------------------------

1)....1....1....13....-15
.......1....2....15...|..0

Quotient: x^2 + 2x + 15
---
Find the zeroes of x^2 + 2x + 15

x = [-2 +- sqrt(4 - 4*1*15)]/2

x = [-2 +- sqrt(-56)]/2

x = [-2 +- 2sqrt(13)i]/2

x = -1 +- sqrt(13)i
