Reduce this equation using the quadratic formula, factoring, or other algebraic method to determine the other zeros of the function.

F(x)= 4x^4 - x^3 - 11x^2 -2x +6

4x^4-11x^2+6=(x^2-2)(4x^2-3)
x^3-2x=x(x^2-2)

then you have a common factor, (x^2-2) that can be factored, and it will reduce rapidly
