<PRE><B>Question 248292</B>
Find all the zeros of the function 
F(x) = x^3 - 5x^2 +17x - 13
-----------
Again, x=1 is a zero because f(1) = 0
-------------------------------------------
1)....1....-5....17....-13
.......1.....-4....13...|..0

----------------------------------
Quotient: x^2 - 4x + 13
Remainder: 0
----------------------------
Find the zeroes of x^2-4x+13
x = [4 +- sqrt(16-4*1*13)]/2
---
x = [4 +- sqrt(-36)]/2
---
x = 2+3i or x = 2-3i
