How to find the roots of a sum of divisions of polynomials

3 views (last 30 days)
How can I find those x values in which this function becomes f(x)=0?
I have 4 vectors of length N: A, B, C, D, and
f(x) = sum( ( x*A_i - B_i ) / ((x*C_i - D_i)^3) )

Multiply by
prod (x*C_i - D_i)^3
and determine the roots of the resulting polynomial of degree 3*(N-1)+1 using the "roots" command.
You might want to use symbolic computations in advance using expand, collect, and subst to get the numerical coefficients of this polynomial.
