Find roots of polynomial $$ p(x) = 2x^4-2x^2-40 $$
Answer
The roots of polynomial $ p(x) $ are:
$$ \begin{aligned}x_1 &= 2.2361\\[1 em]x_2 &= -2.2361\\[1 em]x_3 &= 2i\\[1 em]x_4 &= -2i \end{aligned} $$Explanation
Polynomial $ 2x^4-2x^2-40 $ has no rational roots that can be found using Rational Root Test, so the roots were found using quartic formulas.
