$$6x^3+19x^2-26x-24 = 0$$

$$ \begin{matrix}x_1 = -\dfrac{ 2 }{ 3 } & x_2 = \dfrac{ 3 }{ 2 } & x_3 = -4 \end{matrix} $$

$ \color{blue}{ 6x^{3}+19x^{2}-26x-24 } $ is a polynomial of degree 3. To find zeros for polynomials of degree 3 or higher we use Rational Root Test.

The Rational Root Theorem tells you that if the polynomial has a rational zero then it must be a fraction $ \dfrac{p}{q} $, where p is a factor of the trailing constant and q is a factor of the leading coefficient.

The factors of the leading coefficient ( 6 ) are 1 2 3 6 .The factors of the constant term (-24) are 1 2 3 4 6 8 12 24 . Then the Rational Roots Tests yields the following possible solutions:

$$ \pm \frac{ 1 }{ 1 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 1 }{ 2 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 1 }{ 3 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 1 }{ 6 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 2 }{ 1 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 2 }{ 2 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 2 }{ 3 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 2 }{ 6 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 3 }{ 1 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 3 }{ 2 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 3 }{ 3 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 3 }{ 6 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 4 }{ 1 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 4 }{ 2 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 4 }{ 3 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 4 }{ 6 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 6 }{ 1 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 6 }{ 2 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 6 }{ 3 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 6 }{ 6 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 8 }{ 1 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 8 }{ 2 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 8 }{ 3 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 8 }{ 6 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 12 }{ 1 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 12 }{ 2 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 12 }{ 3 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 12 }{ 6 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 24 }{ 1 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 24 }{ 2 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 24 }{ 3 } , ~ \pm \frac{ 24 }{ 6 } ~ $$

Substitute the POSSIBLE roots one by one into the polynomial to find the actual roots. Start first with the whole numbers.

If we plug these values into the polynomial $ P(x) $, we obtain $ P(-\frac{ 2 }{ 3 }) = 0 $.

To find remaining zeros we use Factor Theorem. This theorem states that if $\frac{p}{q}$ is root of the polynomial then this polynomial can be divided with $ \color{blue}{q x - p} $. In this example:

Divide $ P(x) $ with $ \color{blue}{ 3 x + 2 } $

$$ \frac{ 6x^{3}+19x^{2}-26x-24 }{ \color{blue}{ 3x + 2 } } = 2x^{2}+5x-12 $$

Polynomial $ 2x^{2}+5x-12 $ can be used to find the remaining roots.

$ \color{blue}{ 2x^{2}+5x-12 } $ is a second degree polynomial. For a detailed answer how to find its roots you can use step-by-step quadratic equation solver.
