The equation will have 3 roots, since the maximum order of
polynomial is 3.
We'll factorize by x and we'll
get:
x(24x^2 - 52x - 60) =
0
We'll set each factor as
zero:
x1 =
0
and
24x^2 - 52x - 60 =
0
We'll divide by 4:
6x^2 -
13x - 15 = 0
We'll apply the quadratic
formula:
x1 = [-b+sqrt(b^2 -
4ac)]/2a
x1 =
[13+sqrt(169+360)]/12
x1 =
(13+23)/12
x1 = 3
x2 =
(13-23)/12
x2 = -10/12
x2 =
-5/6
The roots of the equation are: {-5/6 , 0
, 3}.
