Find roots of polynomial $$ p(x) = x^4-x^3-12x^2-28x-16 $$
Answer
The roots of polynomial $ p(x) $ are:
$$ \begin{aligned}x_1 &= -0.8284\\[1 em]x_2 &= 4.8284\\[1 em]x_3 &= -1.5+1.3229i\\[1 em]x_4 &= -1.5-1.3229i \end{aligned} $$Explanation
Polynomial $ x^4-x^3-12x^2-28x-16 $ has no rational roots that can be found using Rational Root Test, so the roots were found using quartic formulas.
