Math Problem Statement
Solution
You have provided a polynomial equation and mentioned that one root of this equation is . Given the rational root theorem, the conjugate should also be a root of the polynomial. I will verify this and proceed to find the remaining roots of the equation.
Let's first confirm that and are indeed roots of the polynomial by substituting these values into the polynomial. Then, I will factor the polynomial to find the other roots.
