The roots of polynomial $ p(x) $ are:
$$ \begin{aligned}x_1 &= 0.3861\\[1 em]x_2 &= -1.0226\\[1 em]x_3 &= -2.0877\\[1 em]x_4 &= 0.2808+0.6275i\\[1 em]x_5 &= 0.2808-0.6275i\\[1 em]x_6 &= -0.45+0.7745i\\[1 em]x_7 &= -0.45-0.7745i \end{aligned} $$Polynomial $ 16x^7+49x^6+42x^5+25x^4+12x^3+6x^2+6x-5 $ has no rational roots that can be found using Rational Root Test, so the roots were found using Newton method.
