Solve for all 6 complex roots of the equation $x^6+10x^5+70x^4+288x^3+880x^2+1600x+1792=0$.
The most common method that students would think of how to tackle this problem is by setting up three factors, toying around the possible candidates for the constants for each factor as the prime factorization of $1792=2^8(7)$.
