Solution Steps
To solve the given cubic equation for all real solutions, we can use a numerical solver to find the roots. In Python, we can utilize the numpy library's roots function, which computes the roots of a polynomial with given coefficients. We will then filter out the real roots and round them to two decimal places for accuracy.
Step 1: Identify the Polynomial
We are given the cubic polynomial equation:
\[
x^{3} - 1.8x^{2} - 18.79x + 17.64 = 0
\]
Step 2: Find the Roots
Using numerical methods, we find the roots of the polynomial. The roots are:
\[
4.9, -4.0, 0.9
\]
Step 3: Round the Roots
The roots are already expressed to two decimal places, so we retain them as:
