Most graphing calculators and computer algebra systems can also find approximate zeros, using a built-in “solve” program. In Chapter 3, we present a versatile method (called Newton’s method) for obtaining accurate approximations to zeros. The only way to find the exact solutions is to factor the expression (using either long division or synthetic division). Here, we have √ √ f (x) = x 3 − x 2 − 2x + 2 = (x − 1)(x 2 − 2) = (x − 1)(x − 2)(x + 2), √ √ from which you can see that the zeros are x = 1, x = 2 and x = − 2.
