The coefficients are real, so the supplied polynomial root $2+2i$ has its complex conjugate $2-2i$ as another polynomial root. Their monic polynomial factor of degree two isPolynomial division then givesThus all five polynomial roots, with multiplicity of a root, areTheir sum is $5$ and their product is $8\cdot 1\cdot (-1)=-8$, agreeing with solution and solution.
