Criterion for real roots of 4th order polynomial

72 Views Asked by At

Suppose we are given a polynomial equation of the form $$ax^4 + bx^3 + cx^2+dx +e = 0 $$ with $a,b,c,d,e\in\mathbb{R}$.

Does there exist conditions on the coefficients $a,b,c,d,e$ such that the equation produces only real roots?
