The count the number of times the sign changes
that is how many positive roots there are
if you get a number that is ≥2, then count down by 2's ending at 0

sub -x for x and evaluate
count change in sign again
that is how many negative roots there are
if you get a number that is ≥2, then count down by 2's ending at 0


so

-2x^3+3x^2-5x-2=0
-,+,-,-
 1  2 
2 or 0 positive roots
