Try this:
x³+4x²+x-6=0
1) To re-write the equation into form:
1*x³+4*x²+1*x-6=0, the note 1+4+1=6, it means x=1
2) to re-write the equation into form:
(x-1)(x²+5x+6)=0
(x-1)(x+2)(x+3)=0
3)
[tex] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x-1=0\\x+2=0\\x+3=0\end{array}\right \ \ \textless \ =\ \textgreater \ \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x=1\\x=-2\\x=-3\end{array}\right[/tex]
