x  - x  + 10*x - 8 = 0
$$\left(10 x + \left(x^{3} - x^{2}\right)\right) - 8 = 0$$
Vieta's Theorem
it is reduced cubic equation
$$p x^{2} + q x + v + x^{3} = 0$$
where
$$p = \frac{b}{a}$$
$$p = -1$$
$$q = \frac{c}{a}$$
$$q = 10$$
$$v = \frac{d}{a}$$
$$v = -8$$
Vieta Formulas
$$x_{1} + x_{2} + x_{3} = - p$$
$$x_{1} x_{2} + x_{1} x_{3} + x_{2} x_{3} = q$$
$$x_{1} x_{2} x_{3} = v$$
$$x_{1} + x_{2} + x_{3} = 1$$
$$x_{1} x_{2} + x_{1} x_{3} + x_{2} x_{3} = 10$$
$$x_{1} x_{2} x_{3} = -8$$

x1 = 0.0938089409870553 - 3.13668335511464*i
x2 = 0.0938089409870553 + 3.13668335511464*i
x3 = 0.812382118025889
x3 = 0.812382118025889
