Hi,
find all the roots: 
x^3-11x^2-25x-13=0    |Note x = -1 as root:  -1 -11 +25 -13 =  0
(x+1) a factor:
Using synthetic division
-1	1	-11	-25	-13
 	 	-1	 12	 13
 	1	-12	-13	 0
Yields:
  x^2 - 12x - 13 = 0
 (x-13)(x+1) = 0
  x = 13  or  x = -1
x^3-11x^2-25x-13=0 = (x+1)(x+1)(x-13)
Roots are:  -1, -1, 13
