The roots of polynomial $ p(x) $ are:
$$ \begin{aligned}x_1 &= 3\\[1 em]x_2 &= 3\\[1 em]x_3 &= 1+\sqrt{ 13 }i\\[1 em]x_4 &= 1-\sqrt{ 13 }i \end{aligned} $$Step 1:
Use rational root test to find out that the $ \color{blue}{ x = 3 } $ is a root of polynomial $ x^4-8x^3+35x^2-102x+126 $.
The Rational Root Theorem tells us that if the polynomial has a rational zero then it must be a fraction $ \dfrac{ \color{blue}{p}}{ \color{red}{q} } $, where $ p $ is a factor of the constant term and $ q $ is a factor of the leading coefficient.
The constant term is $ \color{blue}{ 126 } $, with a single factor of 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 9, 14, 18, 21, 42, 63 and 126.
The leading coefficient is $ \color{red}{ 1 }$, with a single factor of 1.
The POSSIBLE zeroes are:
$$ \begin{aligned} \dfrac{\color{blue}{p}}{\color{red}{q}} = & \dfrac{ \text{ factors of 126 }}{\text{ factors of 1 }} = \pm \dfrac{\text{ ( 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 9, 14, 18, 21, 42, 63, 126 ) }}{\text{ ( 1 ) }} = \\[1 em] = & \pm \frac{ 1}{ 1} \pm \frac{ 2}{ 1} \pm \frac{ 3}{ 1} \pm \frac{ 6}{ 1} \pm \frac{ 7}{ 1} \pm \frac{ 9}{ 1} \pm \frac{ 14}{ 1} \pm \frac{ 18}{ 1} \pm \frac{ 21}{ 1} \pm \frac{ 42}{ 1} \pm \frac{ 63}{ 1} \pm \frac{ 126}{ 1} ~~ \end{aligned} $$Substitute the possible roots one by one into the polynomial to find the actual roots. Start first with the whole numbers.
We can see that $ p\left( 3 \right) = 0 $ so $ x = 3 $ is a root of a polynomial $ p(x) $.
To find remaining zeros we use Factor Theorem. This theorem states that if $ \dfrac{p}{q} $ is root of the polynomial then the polynomial can be divided by $ \color{blue}{qx − p} $. In this example we divide polynomial $ p $ by $ \color{blue}{ x-3 }$
$$ \frac{ x^4-8x^3+35x^2-102x+126}{ x-3} = x^3-5x^2+20x-42 $$Step 2:
The next rational root is $ x = 3 $
$$ \frac{ x^4-8x^3+35x^2-102x+126}{ x-3} = x^3-5x^2+20x-42 $$Step 3:
The next rational root is $ x = 3 $
$$ \frac{ x^3-5x^2+20x-42}{ x-3} = x^2-2x+14 $$Step 4:
The solutions of $ x^2-2x+14 = 0 $ are: $ x = 1+\sqrt{ 13 }i ~ \text{and} ~ x = 1-\sqrt{ 13 }i$.
