p(x) = x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x - 6
This is a cubic equation, so it has three zeros by its nature.
use the rational roots theorem to find the root at x = 3.
Use the factor theorem to convert this root into a factor:
(x - 3)
Divide by the known factor:
(x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x - 6) / (x - 3) = x^2 + 2
Use the zero product principle:
x^2 + 2 = 0
Subtract 2:
x^2 = -2
Take the square root:
x = ± i √2 where i^2 = -1
So what's been shown is that p(x) has only one REAL zero.
