Answer:
B. -1
Step-by-step explanation:
x^3-4x^2+2x+10=x^2-5x-3
We know it has 3 roots since it is a 3rd degree polynomial.
Two of the roots are (3+2i) and (3-2i)
Subtract x^2-5x-3 from both sides
x^3-4x^2+2x+10-(x^2-5x-3)=x^2-5x-3 -(x^2-5x-3)
Distribute the minus sign
x^3-4x^2+2x+10-x^2+5x+3=x^2-5x-3 -x^2+5x+3
x^3 -5x^2+7x +13 =0
Graphing this equation , we see that it crosses the x axis at x=-1
That covers the three roots, 1 real and two complex
