Anyone????

anonymous · Answer

Well, we know it's 3 in total...

anonymous · Answer

So then the only question is whther it has complex roots which come in pairs...

anonymous · Answer

Well how would we use Descrates' Rule of Signs with this

anonymous · Answer

Sign changes..?

anonymous · Answer

Well what are the complex and real numbers?

anonymous · Answer

Let's see, one sign change at the end there...

anonymous · Answer

So that supposedly means it has one positive root..

Nice if we knew what it was...

anonymous · Answer

Rational roots theorem, see if we can spot one...?

anonymous · Answer

Okay, well I don't know I'm really confused :/

anonymous · Answer

Hmm.. no go, it's near to 1 though...

Which would make the other 2 complex.

anonymous · Answer

I'll go with that, 1 positive, 2 complex...

anonymous · Answer

Is that the final answer?

anonymous · Answer

Sorry can you just explain that to me?
