Answer:
We put the numbers that are factors of 4 into the equation to see if any of them are correct.
f(1) = 13 − 3×12 – 2×1 + 4 = 0 1 is a solution
f(−1) = (−1)3 − 3×(−1)2 – 2×(−1) + 4 = 2
f(2) = 23 − 3×22 – 2×2 + 4 = −4
f(−2) = (−2)3 − 3×(−2)2 – 2×(−2) + 4 = −12
f(4) = 43 − 3×42 – 2×4 + 4 = 12
f(−4) = (−4)3 − 3×(−4)2 – 2×(−4) + 4 = −100
The only integer solution is x = 1. When we have found one solution we don’t really need to test any other numbers because we can now solve the equation by dividing by (x − 1) and trying to solve the quadratic we get from the division.
