I'd suggest you begin by reordering the given terms of this function, so that the terms are in descending order by powers of x:  x^3, x^2, x^1, x^0.

caution:  you have two terms in x:  4x and 10x.  Double-check that this is correct.

What methods do you know for finding the roots of a polynomial of the third order (such as you have here)?
